Malcolm, I think it means that you sink the tower bit of the anchor nut into
the composite layer, rather than having it stand proud of the surface as you
normally would - which would produce a protrusion to catch your foot on. It
means that only the flange part of the anchor nut + a bit of rivet (
preferably the smooth bit) would be above the surface to stick into you or
whatever floor/sidewall covering you install.
