Self-Clinching Nut S-0420-3ZC from PennEngineering® is designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets. This nut type provides load-bearing threads in thin materials, ensuring high pushout and torque-out resistance. 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 flow into an undercut, securing the nut in place. The serrated clinching ring prevents rotation after installation. This product is suitable for applications requiring reliable fastening in thin sheet materials. Custom sizes are available upon request.
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.
