Available in steel and brass, Jack-Nut rivet nuts can be coated with RAINTITE® to seal moisture and hard plastic PVC to prevent scratching and galvanic corrosion. Jack-Nut threaded inserts are RoHS-, ELoV-, and WEEE-compliant. Fast Facts: Fastens in blind holes Won’t distort or deform soft plastics or thin sheet metals Fast, inexpensive, and easy to use…
-
Fast Facts:
- Designed for joining plastics and other brittle or soft materials.
- Clamping loads spread over wide area, avoiding damage to vulnerable materials.
- Accommodates oversized holes.
- Corrosion-resistant.
- High-strength aluminum 3.5% magnesium alloy.
- Limited number of lengths needed because of wide grip range – up to 12.0mm.
- Blind hole, one-sided installation capability.
- Assembly applications include mobile homes, plastic-framed windows, plywood furniture, and timber products.
Suggested Applications:
LS are perfectly suited to plastics, wood, GRP, laminates, and thin-gauge materials. LS rivets have an important role to play in applications including the assembly of mobile homes and park homes, installation of plastic-framed windows, and the manufacture of plywood furniture or timber products such as trailers.
This rivet should be selected whenever the materials to be fastened are so soft or brittle that the tensile force exerted by a conventional rivet would cause damage. Alternatively, use the soft-set rivet where a smaller secondary head is desired.
-
Fast Facts:
- Extremely small rivet.
- Works well in tight areas or where space is a premium.
- Ideal for thin sheet metal and printed circuit boards.
- Very low secondary side.
- Low head height.
- Blind hole, one-sided installation capability.
- Popular in electronics applications.
