PENCOM's Self-Clinching Nuts: Ideal Press-In Fasteners

Reliable, vibration-resistant fasteners designed for sheet metal, industrial equipment, and high-performance assemblies.

Self-clinching nuts, also known as press-in nuts, are designed to permanently attach to metal sheets or plates. These unique fasteners embed into the metal, providing a stable, vibration-resistant hold. PENCOM, a leader in fastening solutions, offers a versatile range of high-quality self-clinching fasteners for various industrial and manufacturing applications.

Understanding Self-Clinching Nuts

Self-clinching nuts work by pressing into metal, creating a secure and lasting connection. As they embed, they form a tight grip that prevents rotation or loosening. This makes them ideal for applications where stability, space, and resistance to vibration are crucial.

PENCOM's self-clinching nuts are engineered to meet high-quality standards, designed to withstand harsh environments, and come in various materials, finishes, sizes, and installation methods to suit different applications.

Quick Takeaways

  • Permanent press-in attachment to sheet metal
  • Vibration-resistant and anti-rotation grip
  • Available across materials, finishes, and sizes
  • Optimized for electronics through heavy machinery

Materials

Choose materials based on strength, corrosion resistance, and application requirements.

  • Steel: Sturdy and economical, ideal for general applications.
  • Stainless Steel: Resistant to corrosion, suitable for environments with moisture or chemicals.
  • Aluminum: Lightweight and non-magnetic, great for applications where weight is a concern.

Finishes

Finish options enhance corrosion resistance, wear properties, and appearance.

  • Zinc Plating: Provides basic corrosion protection and a smooth finish.
  • Nickel Plating: Offers a more attractive appearance with enhanced resistance to wear.
  • Black Oxide: Provides a sleek, dark finish, popular for low-profile applications.

Sizes & Installation

From compact electronics to heavy equipment, PENCOM offers the right fit and installation method.

PENCOM's self-clinching nuts come in a wide range of sizes, from small M2 nuts for electronics to larger M12 nuts for heavy machinery.

Standard press-in nuts use a pre-punched hole and install with a simple press. Some designs mount flush for a clean surface on both sides of sheet metal.

For thicker materials, PENCOM offers self-clinching nuts with longer shafts, providing extra stability and a larger gripping area. If you need a removable fastener, some press-in nuts come with a special retainer ring, designed for reuse.
