Self-Clinching Nuts in Types S, SS, CLS, and CLSS offer reliable load-bearing threads for thin sheets, boasting high pushout and torque-out resistance. Specifically designed for steel or aluminum sheets with a Rockwell "B" scale hardness of 80 or less (HRB) and Brinell hardness of 150 or less (HB), these nuts ensure secure fastening in various industrial applications. For stainless steel sheets as thin as .030”, Type SP, or PEM 300® nuts, withstanding hardness levels of HRB 90 or less and HB 185 or less, provide robust thread strength. RoHS compliant and finished with passivation, these self-clinching nuts guarantee durability and performance in assembly processes. Explore our animation for a closer look at their installation.
