Bed Rail Connection System kit includes 5/16" threaded inserts, threaded rod, nuts and slotted washers for 4 bed rail joints, plus 8 wood dowels. To install, drill a 35mm (1-3/8") flat-bottom hole and perpendicular 5/8" through-hole in the bed rail, and a 17/32" hole in the bed post to house the threaded insert.
