[[Sex Bolts]] are nut and bolt pairs that are used to mount [[Skid Plate]]s (or rail guards) onto a skateboard. [[Sex Bolts]] are also known as T-Bolts, T-Nuts, | [[Sex Bolts]] are nut and bolt pairs that are used to mount [[Skid Plate]]s (or rail guards) onto a skateboard. [[Sex Bolts]] are also known as T-Bolts, T-Nuts, [[Rat Nuts]] ([[Powell Peralta]]), and [[Panda Nuts]] ([[Flip and Slip Skids]]). The female end is cylindrical with a flat head on one end, which is why they are also called T-Bolts, because they look like a "T" from the side. | ||
The "T" end fits into a 7/32" hole which is drilled all the way through the deck.<ref>Note: The hole will be 5.5mm for the rest of the world that still isn't stuck on the ridiculous imperial system of units.</ref> The T-Nut fits into the hole from the top (griptape side) of the deck and the screw is screwed in from the bottom. Once installed, the T-Nut will be just about flush with the grip tape. | The "T" end fits into a 7/32" hole which is drilled all the way through the deck.<ref>Note: The hole will be 5.5mm for the rest of the world that still isn't stuck on the ridiculous imperial system of units.</ref> The T-Nut fits into the hole from the top (griptape side) of the deck and the screw is screwed in from the bottom.
