Project 5 Nut Height & Screw

FAQ

What is the Project 5 Nut High & Screw M8 set designed for?

The set serves as replacement or installation hardware for foil track rails. It consists of four M8 brass high nuts (High/Variant) and four matching M8 x 30 screws, allowing you to securely attach the front wing, fuselage, or mast to the board.

How many pieces are included?

The set includes 4 M8 brass high nuts and 4 M8 x 30 screws—a total of 8 pieces, designed for the standard 4-point screw pattern on foil tracks.

Are the screws compatible with my foil track?

The M8 x 30 screws, used in combination with the M8 high nuts, are designed for foil track systems with M8 threads. Before purchasing, briefly check whether your board or foil manufacturer also uses M8 screws on the track.

How does the M8 version differ from the M6 version?

The M8 version (this set) has a larger screw diameter than the M6 set. Which size you need depends on the track or the manufacturer of your foil—if in doubt, check your foil's specifications beforehand.

What materials are the nut and screw made of?

The nut is made of brass, and the screw is appropriately sized (M8 x 30). Brass nuts are commonly used in water sports because they are corrosion-resistant and maintain their shape.

Is the set equally suitable for wing foiling, kite foiling, and windsurfing?

Yes, Project 5 M8 nut and screw sets are universally applicable as long as your foil track uses the M8 format—whether you are winging, kiting, or windsurfing.

How often should I check the screws and nuts on my foil?

We recommend taking a quick look at the screws and nuts before every session and regularly tightening them with the appropriate tool. This prevents movement in the track and ensures consistent foil performance.
