Application area

• Can be used for component thicknesses from 0.8 to 2.5 mm and tensile strengths of up to 1500 MPa
• Suitable for a wide range of high dynamic, static and impact load conditions
• Suitable for use where threaded fittings need to be resistant to high axial forces
• Can be used for aluminum or other materials, including press hardened steel
• Suitable for use with surface-treated, galvanized or painted components

Technical Characteristics

• Thread sizes: M6 to M8
• P.C. 8.8 (standard)
• Resistance to corrosion in accordance with the customer’s requirements
• Requires a pre-pierced hole in the application
• No adverse effects on the joint or function of the thread; no damage due to weld spatters
• High resistance to twist and ejection forces
• Stud positioning tolerance ranges can be halved as compared to welding methods
• Water-tight and gas-tight in reference to the requirements demanded by the automotive sector and dependent on the quality of the component material
• Straightforward, in-process and non-destructive quality testing possible by worker instead of elaborate destructive tests
