A channel nut or a spring channel nut, is a specialized fastening component characterized by its narrow rectangular base featuring grooves along the edges, which house small gripping teeth. These nuts are equipped with a central threaded hole. Plain channel nuts feature a pre-tapped hole in the center, while spring channel nuts include an additional small spring attached beneath the tapped hole. Channel nuts are essential metal fasteners designed for use with both plain and slotted Unistrut as well as metal channel support systems. They play a pivotal role in securely anchoring various fixtures and equipment within these support structures.
