The Right Component for Your Project

At Crown Screw we understand the critical role that our fasteners play in the manufacture of your products. From high volume automotive customers, local fabricators to low volume prototyping, we will have the precise components for your requirements. This information page is designed to give you a brief overview into the world of self clinching fasteners, to guide you towards the right component for your project.

Self Clinch Studs

Self clinching studs provide a fast, efficient and cost-effective way to fix stud to sheet fabrication, enabling a male threaded stud to be permanently attached ready for further assembly processes. Also known as a press fit stud, parts are simply pressed into a pre-punched hole using a press. They can also be installed in-die using our feeder and insertion equipment, which is most suited to high volume and speed installation requirements. Due to the product design and insertion process, you can expect to see high torque values that are suitable for heavy duty fixing. Most commonly used in the automotive pressing and fabrication industry, they are available in various thread sizes, strengths, materials and finishes. If a special is required, we can manufacture to your specific requirements.

Range: Flush Head, Heavy Duty, Thin Sheet, Concealed Head, Low Displacement, Broaching, Dog Point

Threads: Metric, Imperial

Materials: Steel, Stainless Steel, Aluminium

Finishes: Self Colour, Zinc Plated, Ford & JLR spec coatings to WX100

Self Clinch Nuts

Self clinching nuts provide a fast, efficient and cost-effective way to fix a nut to a sheet fabrication, enabling a female threaded nut to be permanently attached ready for further assembly processes. Also known as a press fit nut, parts are simply pressed into a pre-punched hole using a press. They can also be installed in-die using our feeder and insertion equipment, which is most suited to high volume and speed installation requirements. Due to the product design and insertion process, you can expect to see high torque values that are suitable for heavy duty fixing. Most commonly used in the automotive pressing and fabrication industry, they are available in various thread sizes, strengths, materials and finishes. If a special is required, we can manufacture to your specific requirements.

Range: Standard, Thin Sheet, Flush, Floating, Blind, Locking, Broaching, Self Pierce

Threads: Metric, Imperial

Materials: Steel, Stainless Steel, Aluminium

Finishes: Self Colour, Zinc Plated, Ford & JLR spec coatings to WX100

Self Clinch Pins

Self clinching pins provide a fast, efficient and cost-effective way to fix a pin to a sheet fabrication, enabling a male unthreaded pin to be permanently attached ready for further assembly processes. Also known as a press fit pin, parts are simply pressed into a pre-punched hole using a press. They can also be installed in-die using our feeder and insertion equipment, which is most suited to high volume and speed installation requirements. Due to the product design and insertion process, you can expect to see high torque values that are suitable for heavy duty fixing. Most commonly used in the automotive pressing and fabrication industry, they are available in various diameters strengths, materials and finishes. If a special is required, we can manufacture to your specific requirements.

Range: Flush Head, Heavy Duty, Thin Sheet, Concealed Head, Low Displacement, Broaching, Dog Pointed

Materials: Steel, Stainless Steel, Aluminium

Finishes: Self Colour, Zinc Plated, Ford & JLR spec coatings to WX100

Self Clinch Standoffs

Self clinching standoffs provide a fast, efficient and cost-effective way to fix a standoff to a sheet fabrication. These can create a space between sheets to locate other components, and are attached to sheet metal or framework ready for further assembly options. Also known as a press fit standoff, parts are simply pressed into a pre-punched hole using a press. They can also be installed in-die using our feeder and insertion equipment, which is most suited to high volume and speed installation requirements. Due to the product design and insertion process, you can expect to see high torque values that are suitable for heavy duty fixing. Most commonly used in the automotive pressing, fabrication and electrical and electronic industries, they are available in various diameters, strengths, materials and finishes. If a special is required, we can manufacture to your specific requirements.

Range: Thin Sheet, Blind, Through, Through Hole, Concealed Head, Broaching, Clip On

Materials: Steel, Stainless Steel, Aluminium

Finishes: Self Colour, Zinc Plated, Ford & JLR spec coatings to WX100
