CLS-256-0 is a self-clinching nut designed for installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets, providing high pushout and torque-out resistance with a serrated clinching ring to prevent rotation after installation. It is installed by applying parallel force to form an integral bond with the sheet material. The part belongs to the CLS series, which is dimensionally equivalent to nuts meeting 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.
