Go to Post DEKA is right next to the river, and when i got there this morning they wouldn't let us into the building, but apparently there is and standing water on the first floor. The ironic thing is that i work on the water project and we can't deal with a bit of water on the floor - Greg Needel [more]

Re: strongest 80/20 fastener

Extrusion connectors don't handle impact or shock well - although the gusset plates for corners are probably stronger than you need, and two of the barrel connectors (the ones they mill into the end) are probably good enough.

We used single barrel connactors on our chassis last year, and they were always coming loose. Gusset plates and the cheap T nuts fixed that.

Re: strongest 80/20 fastener

Well I don't know if they will suit your application, but toilet bolts are by far my favorite 80/20 fastener.

They are a conventional size (1/4-20) and are very strong. I like them because they are longer then most 80/20 fasteners and are bolts rather then nuts (biscuits).



They can also be bought at any hardware store.
