Self-clinching nuts of type S provide load-bearing threads in thin aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets with high pushout and torque-out resistance, installed by cold flow into properly sized holes using a parallel squeezing force; a serrated clinching ring prevents rotation after installation. These nuts are recommended for use in sheet materials with hardness up to HRB 80 or HB 150, and are compatible with Class 3A/4h or Class 2A/6g screws. The part is designed for permanent installation in thin panels without requiring additional fastening hardware.
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.
