EBF^™

EBF^™ Clinch studs for thick sheet applications

Application Area

• Can be used for component thicknesses from 1.00 to 4.00 mm and tensile strengths of up to 1000 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
• Suitable for use with surface-treated, galvanized or painted components

Technical Characteristics

• Thread sizes: M6 to M12
• P.C. 8.8 (standard)
• Resistance to corrosion in accordance with the customer’s requirements
• Pre-punched processing
• 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
• Straightforward, in-process and non-destructive quality testing possible by worker instead of elaborate destructive tests
• No stud deformation during pressing-in procedure
