What Type of Hardware Should be Used to Attach E-Track to Plywood Trailer Walls
Question:
3/8inch plywood walls. What size screws would you use with thd e tracks? I have a 6x10 diamond cargo trailer and plan on putting 2 rows of the 5foot down each side. Mostly for my zero turn, but want to be prepared for other items.

Expert Reply:
For plywood walls you would need wood screws to secure the E-track # E19148 to the walls. That is if you attach the track to only the wooden walls. If you secure any of the E-track to the metal support frames then you would need machine screws for the metal type used on the trailer.
The mounting holes in the E-tracks are 1/4 inch in diameter so using 3/16 inch hardware of the appropriate length would be the way to go.
