Rivet Nuts

Self clinch nut also known as the riveted nut or self-locking nut, is a type of nut used for thin sheets or sheet metal. This type of nut has a circular shape with embossed teeth and guide slots on one end. Its working principle is to press the embossed teeth into the preset holes in the sheet metal, causing plastic deformation of the sheet metal around the preset holes by pressing the embossed teeth into them. This deformation is pushed into the guide slots, creating a locking effect.

In terms of material, press-in nuts come in different types such as fast-cutting steel press-in nuts S type, stainless steel press-in nuts CLS type, non-rusting iron self clinch nut SP type, copper, aluminum self clinch nut CLA type, etc. to adapt to different environments. In addition, there are three main types: carbon steel, stainless steel, and non-rusting iron.

When installing self clinch nut , factors such as size specifications, material, installation force, thrust, and other related parameters and standards need to be considered. At the same time, it is necessary to choose the appropriate installation method, such as concave tooling and convex tooling.

Overall, the self clinch nutis a way to fix onto thin sheets through pressing, commonly used in cabinets, sheet metal, stamping, and other structural components. Whether in terms of principles, materials, or installation methods, self clinch nuts have their unique advantages and application scope.
