CLS-M6-0 is a self-clinching nut designed for permanent 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 meeting specified hardness limits. The part installs by cold flow of sheet metal into an undercut beneath the nut head. It is dimensionally equivalent to NASM45938/1 specifications and supports Class 3A/4h or Class 2A/6g screws. The nut is installed in sheets as thin as 0.64 mm and is available with or without thread masking plugs (suffix TP).
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.
