Nut that flares out on sheet metal.

Formed sheet metal nut speed nut clip on nut. Formed sheet metal nuts are also known as speed nuts or clip on nuts. However finding a suitable fastening approach has not been easy. Usually available from stock.

As the machine or sheet metal screw is tightened the prongs are drawn inward until they exert pressure on. These general purpose threaded inserts provide excellent resistance to pull out and torque out. They are simple to assemble and feature high strength and high vibration resistance. Insulating rivet nuts a nonconductive rubber coating insulates the nut from electricity seals out moisture and damps vibration.

When properly inserted the knurl prevents torque out during the tightening of the mated part. Try an easy to install nut insert for high all around strength in blind or through hole applications. Thin sheet metal is a popular choice for use in packaging because it is lightweight and takes up less space. Welding can be dirty and time consuming.

Insertion into holes in sheet metal is accomplished via application of a steady squeezing force. Provides strong load bearing threads in stainless sheet metal as thin as 030 0 8mm. And sheet metal screws or loose. When proper installation force is used the threads in a self clinching nut will not be damaged or distorted.

This squeezing process results in the cold flow of the sheet metal which is displaced by the nut s knurl. Speed nuts are designed with two sheet metal prongs that act as one thread which provides a full 360 grip.
