Description

The Foil Drive M8 Locking T Nuts are a simple but very useful spare or replacement hardware item for riders using M8 mast plate bolts with a compatible Foil Drive Gen2 setup. They slide into your board’s mast tracks and can be locked into position once you have found the right mounting point, helping make repeat installation quicker, neater and more consistent.

If you regularly remove your Foil Drive system for travel, cleaning, storage or swapping between boards, locking T nuts make day-to-day ownership much easier. Instead of loose track nuts moving around every time you fit the system, these help keep your preferred foil position ready for the next session.

Who are they for?

Choose the M8 Locking T Nuts if your board, foil or Foil Drive mounting setup uses M8 mast plate bolts. They are ideal as a replacement for lost, worn or corroded hardware, or as a spare set to keep in your Foil Drive kit bag.

If your setup uses M6 bolts, you will need the Foil Drive M6 Locking T Nuts instead. If you are not sure which size you need, check the bolts currently used with your mast plate or contact us before ordering.

Why choose these locking T nuts?

  • Helps speed up repeated Foil Drive installation.
  • Keeps your preferred mast track position easier to repeat.
  • Useful for riders who remove their Foil Drive system between sessions.
  • Made from 316 stainless steel for use around saltwater and freshwater foiling environments.
  • A sensible spare part to keep in your hardware kit, especially when travelling.

Key features explained

Locking track design: Standard track nuts can slide around inside the foil box, which can make lining everything up fiddly. These locking T nuts are designed to stay in position once you have found the correct mounting point.

M8 sizing: This version is for setups using M8 bolts. It is important to match your T nuts to the correct bolt size rather than forcing the wrong hardware.

316 stainless steel: Stainless hardware is important on foil and foil assist setups, where fittings are exposed to water, salt and regular load. Rinsing after use and checking hardware regularly is still recommended.

FAQs

Do I need M6 or M8 locking T nuts?

You need to match the T nuts to the bolts used with your mast plate or Foil Drive mounting hardware. Choose these M8 Locking T Nuts if your setup uses M8 bolts. If your setup uses M6 bolts, choose the M6 version instead.

Are these included with a new Foil Drive Gen2 system?

Foil Drive notes that locking T nuts are included with Gen2 systems, so this product is mainly useful as a spare, replacement or second set for another board.

Why use locking T nuts instead of standard track nuts?

Locking T nuts help keep your preferred mast track position in place, which makes fitting your Foil Drive system quicker and more repeatable. This is especially useful if you remove the system between sessions or swap equipment regularly.

Will these fit every foil board?

They are designed for compatible mast tracks using M8 hardware, but not every setup uses the same bolts or track hardware. If you are unsure, check your existing mast plate bolts or send us details of your board and foil setup before ordering.
