Description

This barrel nut secures screws in tight appliance assemblies to hold panels, brackets, or trim in place. It provides a reliable threaded anchor where a standard nut or tapped hole is not available. What it does:

• Serves as a captive threaded insert to fasten screws in thin or hollow components
• Prevents screw pull-through and keeps panels, handles or brackets firmly attached
• Common symptom: loose or wobbly trim, panel, or handle that won't stay tight
• Works where a blind or offset fastening point requires a compact threaded anchor

What's included:

• One barrel nut

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and follow all safety steps before servicing the appliance
• Insert barrel nut into the hole or bracket opening, align mating screw, and tighten by hand before final trimming with a driver
• Use the correct screw size and thread engagement; avoid overtightening to prevent stripping
• If access is limited, use appropriate drivers or extension tools and support the mating part while fastening
