Fitting

Pressing fasteners into sheet metal

Machines used
  • Lis HAEGER 618plus He
  • PEM
Components used

Nut: reliably creates threads outside the material with high resistance against spinning and pulling. Compression nuts may be used for high-strength applications, for pressing into thin sheets or on the sheet edges.

Screws: reliably create threads outside the material with high resistance against spinning and pulling. Compression screws may be used for high-strength applications, for pressing into thin sheets or on the sheet edges.

Studs: can be used for thin sheets where it is necessary to create threads. Standoffs do not protrude after pressing from the sheet. Like other fasteners and standoffs, they have a high resistance against spinning and pulling.
