Press-in fasteners for stable, resilient fastenings in sheets
Press-in fasteners from OEB enable high-strength, detachable threaded connections in sheets with low material thickness – without welding or thread cutting. Through targeted cold forming, the component material is positively pressed into the undercut of the press-in fastener. The result: a permanently resilient connection with high positional accuracy and exact perpendicularity to the component. We supply standardized press-in nuts, bolts, spacers and flanged parts – easy to assemble, versatile and process-reliable.
Your Benefits at a Glance
High strength despite thin sheet metal
No thread cutting required
Can also be used with coatings
Precise perpendicularity to the component
Economical and automatable
Target groups & areas of application
Press-in fasteners are used in almost all areas of the sheet metal processing industry – especially where highly resilient threads, defined positioning and reproducible assembly processes are required. They are also a safe, non-destructive solution in coated or sensitive components.
