SS-M5-2ZI is a self-clinching nut designed for installation in stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.8 mm, providing high pushout and torque-out resistance with a serrated clinching ring to prevent rotation after installation. It is compatible with steel or aluminum sheets having a hardness of HRB 80 or less and HB 150 or less. The nut features a metric M5 thread and is installed using a parallel squeezing force that causes the sheet metal to cold flow into an undercut around the head.
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.
