FLANGEFORM® Studs are threaded fasteners with unique ribs designed for installation into thin gauge materials. The fastener plunges the pre-punched hole and wraps itself around the material whilst the ribs embed themselves providing an integral high strength attachment point. Flangeform studs are available with dog-points, plain shank and shouldered.
Advantages :
• High strength attachment point in thin materials.
• Accurate & positive positioning.
• High bending moment resistance.
• Can be produced in a threaded, plain shank & shouldered design.
• Pull & push out are of similar performance.
• Provides a flush mounting surface.
• No weld splatter / fumes.
• Can be installed into 2 layers of material.
• Ideally suited to multiple insertion and automated assembly in die or off line.
