Can the underdesk mount drill into a metal bar not wood?

Its all about the screws you use. Normally the screws they include are not metal screws. But if you exchange them with metal screws I can't it being a problem. The unit itself has holes for screws.

Yes. You would need to obtain some self tapping screws from your local hardware store. Of course you could get some 5 minute epoxy and epoxy two small pieces of wood (firing strips) to the desk bottom and use standard screws to attach the tray. I really like my tray and would take the time if need be to attach it to your favorite desk. Good luck with it.

The underdesk system has holes in it. The question is do you have metal drill bits? If so, then of course you can. You will need to substitute the provided screws with sheet metal screws, but the tray doesn't care where you mount it.

I believe so if the bar is thick enough... the mount can be rotated 90 degrees. Just loosen the screw rotate and then tighten it back.

I can not answer i am sorry i suggest you call 3m snd sk them for exact measurements i do think it is for wood desks not metal but if you get a metal bit for a drill if the holes do not line up and possable a few washers it should be ok if not then an edge clamp shelf may be the answer.

Highly unlikely. At a minimum it would have to be structural glass at least 3/4" thick and you would need some type of padding for the undermount bracket. I doubt the company would suggest it. But try company support line, they are helpful.

if you have a way to mount it to your metal piece then i don't think it would be tricky. your local home goods store can point you in the right direction as to the best screws\bits for this purpose :)

You would have to provide your own anchors and screws that can fit through the holes on the mount. Use a mason bit slightly smaller than the anchor to mount it.

Yes. There's nothing special about the mounting. It's just a flat metal piece on bottom, and a cylinder with a threaded hole in the bottom. I wouldn't do it on a wooden desk because the force would probably either indent the desk and bend the wood or something, but it can definitely be done.

OMI haven't done it but the instructions say it's possible. See this PDF. http://www.moen.com/shared/docs/instruction-sheets/ins10086.pdf We used the "drill hole" option and it is very solid. I'm around 230 Lbs. Maybe use the "Screw into stud" for one mount and the "Hole in drywall" for the other.73

yes I have a installation guide, if you will provide your e-mail address I will scan and send it to you. Are you planning to topmount or undermount?

I don't know what you mean by under... do you mean you would attach this to the ceramic horizontal bar? If that's what you are asking, then I would have to say... no, at least not with the screws they provide. The support is very narrow -- you would have to drill holes through your bar, or strap it on with some metal or wire, but I think that would eventually loosen and fall off. This item is really meant for screwing into/against wood.

The "nailing" part is thin metal. The design works great for wood legs, but it won't work for metal barstool

Yes, but know that the metal key is imbedded into the plastic. If your just looking for a screw might be cheaper to go to the local hardware store.

If it is being held by something solid (vice?) or installed with mounting brackets then I would think it would be easily done. It is made of a soft aluminum and very bendable. I had much luck and success with this product however I didn't not drill it. Good luck.

depends on the type of metal desk, but probably yes. Pilot holes would need to be drilled and sheet metal screws used in lieu of wood screws.

yes, and the base has keyhole slots into which you can insert bolts to hold a jig or bracket to hold your work vertically....like drilling a hole down a table leg etc.

Since I did not have to install the Gladiator mountin bar onto metal, I can only assume that it would not be a problem. I would immagion that you would have to use sheet metal screws, but perhaps you might want ot use some 'plywood' between the metal and the mounting panel. As to cutting it to size, again there should be no problem there.

Normally it would be with wood screws, but still no problem with a metal bench. Just lay up the pattern that is provided, drill holes, and mount with your own hardware.
