For a 1/2'” MDF Panel, Monarch recommends using #8-1/2'” Pan Head Phillips Deep Thread Black Oxide Screws to secure the panel clips to the rear side of the panel.
For a 3/4'” MDF Panel, Monarch recommends using #8-3/4'” Pan Head Phillips Deep Thread Black Oxide Screws to secure the panel clips to the rear side of the panel. A third party laboratory conducted testing using our recommended installation (1) and the configuration failed at a load of 167 pounds per screw. Using a 4:1 safety factor, the implied load per screw would be approximately 42 pounds. For a typical panel installation (1) with 24 screws securing 12 panel clips, this translates to a failure load of 4,008 pounds and a load bearing capacity of 1,002 pounds using a 4:1 safety factor. It is important to note that the Monarch Z Clip did not fail at this load, but rather the screw sheared or pulled out.
