Type SMPP self-clinching nuts are for installation into stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.64 mm, with corrosion resistance similar to 300 series stainless steel. The SMPP-M3 variant is made of age-hardened A286 stainless steel, has a threaded hole for M3 x 0.5, and requires a minimum sheet thickness of 0.64 mm and a hole diameter of 4.22 mm. It is recommended for use in stainless steel sheets with hardness of HRB 90 or less. The nut has a minimum edge distance of 5.1 mm, a clinching profile height of 1.4 mm, and a maximum installation torque of 1.5 N•m. It achieves a minimum tensile strength of 20 kN and a minimum pushout load of 300 N when installed in 304 stainless steel at HRB 89.
Type SMPP self-clinching nuts are for installation into ultra-thin sheets.
