Introduction to Self-Clinching Nuts:
Self-clinching nuts are a type of fastening component that is designed to be installed into pre-punched or drilled holes in a base material. When inserted into the hole, they use a self-clinching mechanism. This involves deforming the surrounding material of the hole to create a strong mechanical interlock, firmly securing the nut in place within the hole. As a result, they can effectively withstand forces such as tension and shear forces.
They are typically made from materials like steel, stainless steel, or aluminum alloys, depending on the specific requirements for strength, corrosion resistance, and the application environment. This wide range of material options allows them to be suitable for various industries and usage scenarios.
