Self Clinching Nuts

A serrated clinching ring, ribs or hex head prevents the fastener from rotating in the host material once it has been properly installed. The self clinching fasteners becomes an integral part of the host bracket or assembly into which they are installed. The sheet remains flush on one side, and the fastener is permanently locked in place.

Self Clinching Fastener is any device, usually threaded, when pressed into a ductile metal displaces the host material around the mounting hole. This action causes the metal to cold flow into the specially designed annular recess in the shrank or pilot of the fastener.
