Today's demanding applications require multiple options for the most cost-effective designs and proper assembly parameters.

 

Light Metals

 

Light Metals

Provides options for assembly into aluminum, zinc, and magnesium, with an emphasis on compact application designs, thermal expansion/contraction, reusability, and reduced debris generation.

Featured Technologies: ALtracs® Xt, TAPTITE PRO®, Mag-Form®

Flow Drilling Screw Fastening

Assembly into multilayered sheets of material without using a pre-made hole allows for an assembly and design that secures the joint and resists vibration while still providing the option of disassembly.

Featured Technologies: FDS®, OptiFlow®

Flow Drilling Screw Fastening

 

Plastics and Composite Options

 

Plastics and Composite Options

Thermoplastic, Thermosets, and Composite materials pose various challenges. These options address designs that support smaller bosses, cosmetic appearance, clamp load loss, vibration, and possible insert removal.

Featured Technologies: EVO PT®, DELTA PT®, DELTA PT® DS, Remform® II™ Screws

Plastic Components

Alternate clips made of plastic can provide design benefits over steel.
