My previous corner brackets would get loose over time due to the heat of the bed softening the ABS. Tightening the nut would work temporarily, but then the plastic would heat, and deform again.
This design is made to be more resistant to heat, and not rely on the metal nut to keep it snug against the bed or glass. To install this, remove the corner nut on the print bed. Fit the metal nut in the main pin, and join the corner piece and pin back on the metal bolt. Thread your printed knurled nut on the pin, and adjust to size. Once you have everything where you want it, tighten the metal nut.
The bolt is compatible with M8 x 1.25
This has been working much better for me, and I haven't needed to adjust the size after at least a dozen prints.
