Relying on decades of precision machining and cold-forging expertise, we manufacture <b data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"382\">S Series (Carbon Steel) and CLS Series (Stainless Steel) Self-Clinching Nuts<\/b>. Engineered to be pressed into pre-punched holes, our clinching fasteners mechanically displace the host material into a specially designed undercut.

They initially attempted to use projection weld nuts, which caused severe cosmetic burn marks and heat-affected zones that warped the delicate aluminum frames. They then switched to cheap clinching nuts, but the nuts spun out when technicians applied high torque to the grounding screws.<\/p><p data-path-to-node=\"39\"><b data-path-to-node=\"39\" data-index-in-node=\"434\">Our Solution:<\/b> We transitioned their assembly line to our precision-forged <b data-path-to-node=\"39\" data-index-in-node=\"508\">CLS Series Stainless Steel Self-Clinching Nuts<\/b>. We analyzed the hardness of their 5052 aluminum (HRB 60) and confirmed the CLS nuts possessed the ideal superior hardness to bite effectively.<\/p><p data-path-to-node=\"39\"><b data-path-to-node=\"39\" data-index-in-node=\"699\">The Result:<\/b> The deeper knurl penetration locked perfectly into the soft aluminum. Torque-out resistance increased by 45%, zero cosmetic damage was sustained on the exterior face, and overall assembly time was cut by completely eliminating the welding station and post-weld grinding.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25668fd6 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"25668fd6\"

CLS series nuts are made of 300-series stainless, rated for a maximum host hardness of HRB 70. However, most 300-series stainless sheet metal is typically HRB 88 or harder. The nut is softer than the panel and is crushing itself.
