if it's made in the states, most likely 10-24 or 10-32
if it's made in the orient, M5 is your likely choice.
iirc, 10-24 or 10-32 nut is 3/8" when measured from flat to flat on a hexagon.

| Post subject: | Size of the nuts and bolts for the H Crate |
The H crate has been designed to accept a certain sized nut and bolt for attaching things to the side or back of the crate. The crate has on the inside hexagonal holes that are designed to house the head of the bolt and to stop the bolt from rotating when you screw the nut on. Does anyone know what size bolt (head size) the crate was designed for? Ken |

Thanks for the info. I am constructing a double bracket to attach to the back of my H Crate to stow my trolley in. I don't want to have my trolley stored in front of my H Crate, where the holes are. |

84620111 KNOB, REPLACEMENT H-RAIL CLAMP If you lost the knob it may have been one without the brass insert and simply slipped off. Talk to your dealer. I believe warranty will send you one. Bcastile wrote: We have received a few reports of failures to H-Rail accessory tension knobs.
There is some variance in the threaded diameter of knobs which may cause the knob not to have enough gripping strength. Some knobs have slipped under load while many others perform as designed. They can easily be tested by putting them on a rail, and tightening the knob/latch down. The likely result of the loose threads is that the clamp simply slips a little, so a catastrophic failure with the rod rack, drink holder, or universal mount is unlikely. The knob’s plastic threaded hole is being changed to a threaded brass insert which is molded into the plastic to provide consistent strength. We’re looking at early December for knobs to be in your hands. If you would like new knobs, please contact your dealer if you have purchased a 2015 Pro Angler or any H-Rail accessories so we can send out replacement knobs when they become available. 84620111 KNOB, REPLACEMENT H-RAIL CLAMP |
