Blind Self-Clinching Nuts

Introduction to Blind Self-Clinching Nuts: 

Blind self-clinching nuts are fastening elements that have a unique design and functionality. They are inserted into pre-punched or drilled holes in a base material. Once inserted, they utilize a self-clinching mechanism which involves deforming the surrounding material of the hole to create a strong mechanical interlock. This firmly secures the nut in place within the hole, enabling it to withstand forces such as tension and shear forces.

The "blind" aspect means that the nut has a design where the internal threading is accessible from only one side. This characteristic makes them suitable for applications where access to the nut is limited from one direction or where a specific installation configuration requires such a design.

These nuts are typically made from materials like steel, stainless steel, or aluminum alloys, depending on the requirements for strength, corrosion resistance, and the application environment.

Application Scenarios:

1, Electronics: Used in PCB assemblies for attaching components when backside access is limited.

2, Automotive: Applied in dashboard and engine compartment to mount parts where rear access is restricted.

3, Industrial Machinery: Employed to mount covers, guards etc. when access from one side is available.

4, Furniture: Utilized to attach drawers, handles etc. in metal furniture with limited access in some directions.
