HankŪ Clinch Nuts - Flush Fit Female Thread Studs
Hank® Clinch Nuts - Flush fit
Optimising Reliability and Strength
Used across a broad spectrum of commercial, domestic and electronics applications, Hank-Clinch® Nuts overcome the problem of achieving a strong female thread in products which, by design, are constructed of lightweight, narrow guage materials. Hank-Clinch Nuts can be applied with confidence to a variety of precision fabrications and domestic appliance assemblies, providing secure, load bearing female threads.
Simple Application
Introduced into pre-punched or pre-drilled holes using a press capable of applying a squeezing action, will cause the parent material to flow into the specially designed under head configuration offering a load bearing and torque resistant fit. Hank Clinch Nuts offer reliable, efficient and preferable alternative to conventional weld nuts, eliminating both labour intensive application methods and the damage caused to finished surfaces by weld spatters, whilst increasing the ability to achieve better positioning and assembly accuracy.
