The F-Track Bolt and Wing Nut Set is designed for securing hurricane panels to standard F-track systems. This simple but essential fastening set allows panels to be quickly installed and removed while maintaining a strong, secure hold during storm conditions.
Each set includes a square head track bolt and a wing nut, working together to lock hurricane panels firmly into the F-track. The square base of the bolt slides directly into the track, allowing for easy positioning and adjustment before tightening.
