CLS-0524-1 is a self-clinching nut designed for installation in aluminum sheets with high pushout and torque-out resistance. It features a serrated clinching ring to prevent rotation after installation and is compatible with 5052-H34 aluminum. The part has a M5 thread, a shank diameter of 0.220 in, and a body length of 0.240 in. Installation requires a parallel force that causes the sheet metal to cold-flow into an undercut. Performance data indicates a minimum pushout force of 165 lb and a torque-out resistance of 160 in-lb when installed in 5052-H34 aluminum. The nut meets dimensional equivalence to NASM45938/1 specifications.
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.
