Made my own version of Skadis T-Nuts, since I found M2 hex nuts to be too unreliable. 
These T-Nuts are designed to fit heat-set inserts (M2) from the back.

  • They can be inserted from the front and will lock themselves when tightened.
     
  • Compatible with the “Skadis T-Nuts Mounting System” by 6d6178. Tag “skadisnut”.
     
  • They print fine on a 0.4 & 0.6 mm nozzle (settings below).

Usability Tips:

When inserting the heat-set inserts, they may not be perfectly aligned. Also a small barrier of plastic may partially block the way to the threads. 

In both cases I found it very helpful to just once fully screw in a screw from the back. Blocking plastic will be pushed out.

Print settings:

Filament: PLA
Layer height: 0.2 mm (0.4 nozzle) / 0.33 mm (0.6 nozzle)
Infill: 100%
Perimeters: 3
Support: not needed
Top/bottom fill pattern: monotonic lines
Top/bottom solid layers: 4/3

Design Origin

Full remodel, but heavily inspired by the original “Skadis T-Nuts Mounting System for Ikea Skadis Pegboards”.
