Blind Press Nuts with sealed-thread are designed to provide extended thread lengths in thin sheet metal. Press nuts provide a seal against the entrance of dirt's, oils, moisture, and corrosive atmospheres. They are usually more economical to use than nut and screw-type hardware that require elaborate seals and special assembly procedures.

Features and Benefits

Features and Benefits

N/A Self-clinching fasteners are pressed into holes in sheet metal by applying a steady squeezing force. This results in the cold-flow of sheet material, which is displaced by the knurl, into the undercut area on the shank of the fastener. Once fully embedded, the knurled area prevents torque-out during tightening of mating part.
