The CLSS-M5-2 self-clinching nut from PennEngineering® is designed to provide load-bearing threads in thin sheets, specifically suitable for applications in steel or aluminum materials. This nut type features high pushout and torque-out resistance, making it ideal for environments where durability and reliability are critical. The installation process involves placing the nut in a properly sized hole and applying a parallel squeezing force, which allows the surrounding sheet metal to cold flow into an undercut, securing the nut in place. The serrated clinching ring further enhances the nut's resistance to rotation after installation. Custom sizes are available upon request, and the product meets stringent quality standards, ensuring consistent performance in various applications.
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.
