The ACN clinch nut is designed to be installed into pre-pierced holes. Displacement lobes on the clinch nut force the sheet metal to flow into the locking groove, allowing the top of the sheet metal to remain flat with no indentation and providing the nut with high push out and torque values.

The ACN clinch nut is designed for thicker sheet metal applications from 2mm to 10mm thick, and is compatible with Class 8, 9, & 10 hardware depending on application requirements.
