    Just had a quick look on Rave, and I cant seem to find anything about them.

    I would doubt that they are rated thou.

    And not ever having had a look, I cant tell you how they are attached either.

    Pretty sure they are in to a captive nut. Never seen anything about them being rated.

    The weld nut tabs are quite small under the floor, smaller than a kiddy seat anchorage, 8mm thread. I would not put more than 25kg on each bolt. I would rather use M10 high tensile nuts and bolts with 75x75x3mm load spreading plates under the floor.

    so if i wanted to bolt down a piece of ply so as to mount a fridge slide and a few tie downs for some space cases then i should drill some new holes for larger bolts then? is there anything already in place for an application such as this, or do the proprietary built units require drilling as well?
    thanks
