Fastronix Solutions 3/8" 4 Stud Power and Ground Distribution Block with Cover

Won’t go as low as a 1 Star since this is my second junction post and had no issues with the first one, but had a pretty bad experience with this most recent junction post I ordered. First, the plastic hex recess for the first bolt didn’t hold the head as I tightened the nut, and the bolt head spun inside the recess. Had to take the metal plating out to access the bolt head as I tried to loosen the nut back off. Then, as I attempted to loosen, the nut seized and the bolt broke off. I was able to scavenge a bolt off a single post junction block I wasn’t using anymore, and the end result was what I needed, but it was far more effort and frustration than what should be expected from a brand new unit. Hopefully I don’t have this same issue as I mount cables to the other three posts and Hopefully this was just a one off failure in quality control and not an indicator of future trends. I really like Fastronix stuff and prefer to keep using them.

I had 2/2 nuts freeze on me when I tried to remove them. I was just rearranging some wiring and ended up having to pull out a dremel to break my cables free. The hardware is not very high quality.I do not recommend this product. It looks great out of the box, seems to work well for the first connection but I suspect I will have more dremel use in the next couple days :/ I'll see if penetrating oil can help lubricate the threads before trying to back off the remaining connections.Too bad. I love how these look.

If you purchase this item - replace the bolts with good quality ones before using. I placed my wiring and tightened them. I then noticed I needed to move one a small amount. They would not loosen. Ended up taking cables loose from the other end, taking strip apart and placing head of bolt in a vise. Still would not loosen. Ended up twisting bolts in to. Strip worked great after replacing bolts. Would have sent back but I needed it today.

I put this on my Jeep yesterday. My Jeep has too many things going to the positive power terminal on the batter so I figured this would be perfect. When I was installing it I decided to move one of the cables from one of the terminals to another and when I went to loosen one of the nuts, it seized up. Now the nut was frozen on the post and the cable was loose so I had to cut it off with a hacksaw. I'm not new to mechanics and did not over tighten it. It's just very poor quality or I got a lemon. The other three studs and nuts seem to work well. I would not buy this again.

Had to add another wire to an existing stud. The threads on the stud galled up, causing the nut to seize up tight. Soooo much fun cutting the stud in half while in the engine compartment.If you MUST use this poor product, use anti-seize on the studs. It is a must if you plan to remove or replace wiring down the road. Personally, I will find another manufacturer. Bluesea systems makes a better product.
