350 Lock, 5/16" Gap
The 350 Lock is a drop & lock insert fastener designed to install wall paneling. The engineered plastic body and steel screw withstand repeated removal. The 350 Lock compression fits into a 1.000” milled hole of any hard substrate. The 350 Lock has a 5/16” deep key slot that performs with a 334 Mounting Euro Screw (or compatible 300 Series Screws). The 300 Series screw has a set washer that stops the screw at 5/16” distance, allowing the exact depth needed to seat perfectly in the key slot of the 350 Lock. An overhead reveal of ½”is required to achieve the drop and lock motion.

DESCRIPTION
The 350 Lock is a drop & lock insert fastener designed to install wall paneling. The engineered plastic body and steel screw withstand repeated removal. The 350 Lock compression fits into a 1.000” milled hole of any hard substrate. The 350 Lock has a 5/16” deep key slot that performs with a 334 Mounting Euro Screw (or compatible 300 Series Screws). The 300 Series screw has a set washer that stops the screw at 5/16” distance, allowing the exact depth needed to seat perfectly in the key slot of the 350 Lock. An overhead reveal of ½”is required to achieve the drop and lock motion.
The 350 Lock system is suitable for mounting all kinds of panels, from architectural or veneer panels to acoustic and fabric panels. A wide range of surfaces combinations can be used by selecting any screw from the 300 Series products that best fit the application.
INSTALLATION
The 350 Lock fits into a 1” Diameter x 1/2” Depth milled hole. (Best milled with a 1” Forstner Bit if installed in the field) A soft mallet is then needed to compression fit the plastic insert into the 1” hole. Install the 311 Alignment Pin 5/16” (Sold Separately) into the center hole of insert. Press the panel against the adjacent surface you wish to connect to firmly. Apply a few soft strikes to the back of each connection point to create a noticeable location mark. Remove the 311 Alignment Pins. Install screws to marked locations. Using a coordinated lift, seat the screws into place and assure your panel is dropped fully in place. This fastener is suitable for repeated removal. NOTE: Silicon can be used to strengthen the connection.
