Carr Teenut
fasteners are bushings with internal threads and a substantial base,
combining the functions of a nut and washer. They offer many design
advantages and frequently cut weight, labor and cost.
In metal applications,
Teenut fasteners are typically spot welded or projection welded,
with the flange attached to a base plate. They may also be snapped
into holes. Either way, they obviate costly tapping and simplify
design.
In non-metallic
applications, Teenut fasteners are usually driven into holes. They
may also be molded into plastic. Thus they provide threads and add
strength to relatively weak materials. Some Teenut fasteners for
non-metallic applications may be fed and applied automatically.
In addition to Teenut
fasteners shown, several sizes and styles are available in M4 or M6
metric threads. |
