2600/2700 STUD LENGTH SELECTION Total material thickness ?G? consists of the thickness of all materials to be fastened. This must include the thickness of the material ?P? to which the stud assembly is attached, the material ?F? to which the receptacle is attached plus gaskets (if used) and allowance for paint or other protective finishes. If the total thickness is near the upper limit of the stud grip range, the next longer stud should be used. This will still maintain positive locking of the fastener under vibration. P (panel thickness)..................... .062 F (frame thickness................... + .062 GRIP (total thickness).............. = .124
