Captive Pins & Miscellaneous

Self-Clinching pins are ideal for compact electronic assemblies. These pins are easily installed by squeezing them into a properly sized hole in a sheet. With applied force, the metal will cold flow and clinch them permanently into place. They can be installed into a variety of hardness (HRB 92/ HB195).

Broaching Type Fasteners (PCBs)

CKF2 and CKFS2 broaching-type fasteners are designed for use on printed circuit boards and on most brittle or hard materials; such as, glass laminates, epoxy or resin with paper, nylon, or canvas bases. They are also used on materials too thin or unsuitable for threading, such as acrylic and polycarbonate panels. Since the aforementioned materials do not flow under pressure, these fasteners are designed with a knurled shank that can be pressed into a drilled hole. The shank grips the board with an interference fit by broaching its way into the panel as it is squeezed into the holes.

Weld Nuts

CFWN weld nuts are the solution to providing load bearing threads in sheets that are too thin to tap. They provide threepoint projections for fast, easy welding. Captive Fastener weld nuts self align into standard hole sizes, and are dimensionally identical to industry standards. The alignment collar orients the weld nut and prevents weld spatter from entering thread area.
