  • Installs into thinner, harder, high strength steel materials (high strength steel sheets up to 700 MPa maximum ultimate tensile)
  • Allows overall weight reduction for all vehicles
  • Provides lower installed cost
Compare to other thin sheet fastening devices:
  • Addresses environmental concerns
  • Lighter weight
  • Close to edge of panel mounting
  • No embossing required
  • Hardened stud material provides stronger thread strength
  • Can be installed automatically using press or in-die technology

  • 1 For maximum performance, we recommend that you use the maximum shank length for your sheet thickness.
  • 2 Threads are gageable to within 2 pitches of the "S" Max. dimension. A class 3B/5H maximum material commercial nut shall pass up to the "S" Max. dimension.
  • 3 HRB - Hardness Rockwell "B" Scale. HB - Hardness Brinell
  • 4 “X” suffix studs may have pitch diameters and major diameters below 2A “Basic”, per ANSI B1.1, Section 7, and B1.13M, Section 8 to allow for minimum of 0.0002” / 0.0051 mm of plating.
