Multi-grip capability accommodates wide variations in material thickness.
One rivet can be used to replace several standard grip fasteners.
External splines fill rear sheet and oversize front sheet holes.
3x greater hole-size tolerance than standard breakstem rivets.
Far less sensitive to application variations.
Easier specification due to one-rivet x one-mandrel solution.
Typically half the installed weight versus an equivalent breakstem rivet.
Either magazine-fed or fed via a vibrating bowl to a wide choice of installation equipment.
Assembly applications where you will find NeoSpeed® fasteners include automotive, electronic, domestic appliance, electrical equipment, and general light fabrication.
Improves torque-to-turn by up to 350% in sheet metal compared to round-body inserts.
Increases punch life compared to hexagonal geometries.
Blind hole, one-sided installation capability.
Superior pull-out performance.
Can be used for very thin sheet materials from 0.50mm (0.02″).
Provide a female thread-in application.
Can be installed in pre-coated or post-painted applications without damaging the surface.
Clamp two or more sheets.
Various platings available to increase corrosion resistance.
Large-flange head provides a load-bearing surface and reinforces the hole to prevent push-out.
Can be used as a spacer and can be supplied with an underhead seal.
Assembly applications where the Squaresert® is used include automotive body mountings, electrical enclosures, soft sheet metal, plastics & composites, domestic appliances, and general light fabrication.
