Features and Benefits:
Ideal for flush applications where a thin stainless steel sheet requires load-bearing threads but still must remain smooth.
Installs completely flush into thin stainless steel sheets up to HRB 88 / HB 183.
Can be installed before bending sheet.

Datasheet
Datasheet Summary Powered by GS/AI
The F4-0420-1 is a self-clinching flush nut designed for installation into 300 series stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.060 in. The part provides a 1/4-20 thread and is installed into a nominal 0.312 in. hole with a maximum sheet thickness of 0.343 in. It achieves an axial tensile strength of 1035 lbs. and recommends a tightening torque of 36 in.-lbs. for a preload of 70% of ultimate strength with a nut factor of 0.2. The fastener installs flush on both sides of the sheet, with no protrusions, and can be mounted before sheet forming. Testing confirms installation pushout strength of 14,000 lbs. in 300 series stainless steel and 10,000 lbs. in cold-rolled steel, with a shear strength of 4500 N.
