Our M8 channel nuts made of stainless steel - ideal for permanent use on your vehicle's roof!
Also available with M6 thread in various lengths!
Combine the required thread diameters, thread lengths, and fastening material for your project. All fastening material, like the channel nuts themselves, is made of stainless steel.
These M8 channel nuts are designed for the C-rails installed on the roofs of VW T5, T6, T6.1, Crafter, and Sprinter, and are perfect for securely mounting roof racks, roof decks, solar panels, and other accessories.
When choosing the length, consider the material thickness of all parts:
When choosing an M8 channel nut with a 17 mm thread length, including screw and washer, for example, 4.4 mm of usable thread length remains for the material to be fastened:
17 mm thread - 3 mm C-rail - 8 mm nut - 1.6 mm washer = 4.4 mm
