Self-Clinching Nuts - Types S, SS, CLS, CLSS, SP - Metric
Self-clinching nuts are installed by placing them in properly sized holes in sheets and applying a parallel squeezing force to the head of the nut. The sheet metal surrounding the head cold flows into an undercut thereby making the fastener an integral part of the sheet. A serrated clinching ring prevents the fastener from rotating after installation.
Provide load-bearing threads in thin sheets with high pushout and torque-out resistance.
