CLSS-032-1 is a self-clinching nut designed for installation in aluminum sheets, providing load-bearing threads with high pushout and torque-out resistance. It features a serrated clinching ring to prevent rotation after installation and is compatible with 12-28 thread sizes. The part installs in sheets as thin as 0.064 in. (1.6 mm) and is intended for use in materials meeting specified hardness limits, including 5052-H34 aluminum. Installation pushout strength is rated at 120 lbf and torque-out resistance at 10 in.-lbf when installed in 5052-H34 aluminum. The nut is dimensionally equivalent 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.
