Our high-performance STRUX® fasteners
offer a stronger and more
reliable assembly
alternative to traditional clinch and weld studs.
Along with stud applications, the STRUX® design
can be used in joints that require self-tapping
fasteners. In most cases, a STRUX® fastening
solution can yield significant time and cost
savings when compared to welded or other
staked fasteners.

Eliminates Welding
STRUX® fasteners eliminate
the need for expensive
and sometimes hazardous welding operations.
- No distortion due to excessive heat
- Aesthetic value
of application is improved
- Potential for corrosion is
reduced
- Elimination of costly production bottlenecks
Consistent Reliability
With proper installation, STRUX® fasteners can reduce the
potential for failure. STRUX® products give you consistent
push-out strength and torque values, whether it's the 10th
or 10 millionth fastener being installed.
- Visual inspection
of joint is fast and clean
- Consistent joint integrity
- Predictable performance
Resists Push-Out & Rotation
Once seated, the displacement lobes keep the STRUX® fastener
from rotating during service. The torsional and push-out strength
are limited only by the shear strength
of the engagement material.
Critical Applications
The high-performance capabilities of STRUX® products
makes them an excellent match for critical applications
such as air bags and seating.
- Complete design assistance
- Application testing
- Assembly validation
Easy Installation
STRUX® clinch fasteners can be assembled manually,
or automatically with any equipment capable of feeding
rivets, weld studs or conventional clinch studs. This
includes hydraulic staking presses.
- Increased production rates when
using progressive dies
- Improved product and joint integrity
