CLS-M10-2 is a metric self-clinching nut designed for installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets, providing high pushout and torque-out resistance. It features a serrated clinching ring to prevent rotation after installation and is compatible with sheets of specified hardness. The nut installs by applying parallel force, causing the sheet metal to cold-flow into an undercut for an integral bond. It is dimensionally equivalent to NASM45938/1 specifications and is intended for use with Class 3A/4h or Class 2A/6g screws. The exact physical dimensions and material specifications for this variant are not detailed, but the design characteristics are shared across the CLS/CLSS series.
Type S, SS, CLS, and CLSS nuts provide load-bearing threads in thin sheets with high pushout and torque-out resistance.
Type SP, PEM 300® nuts provide strong load-bearing threads in stainless steel sheets as thin as .030”.
Types S and SS are recommended for use in steel or aluminum sheets HRB (Rockwell “B” scale) 80 or less and HB (Hardness Brinell) 150 or less.
