SPACERFIX™ Aluminium

Product catalog summary
Product Overview: SPACERFIX™ is a self-clinching standoff designed for thin metal sheets, offering an efficient and aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional welded spacers and assemblies.
Specifications: Available in steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, SPACERFIX™ features various head types (hexagonal, cylindrical, concealed) and supports both open and closed threaded ends. It is suitable for electronic applications requiring snap-on and lockable assemblies.
Technical Data: Detailed dimensions and hole preparation recommendations are provided to ensure optimal clinching and mechanical resistance. Precise hole preparation methods include punching, drilling, laser cutting, and water jet cutting.
Advantages: SPACERFIX™ combines spacer and internal thread functions in one component, offers high resistance assembly, and can be used on pre-painted workpieces without damaging the finish. It supports high-speed installation and reduces assembly costs by eliminating the need for retapping.
Installation Recommendations: Guidelines for hole location and workpiece preparation are outlined to ensure effective clinching and avoid deformation. Specifications for concealed head installations, including spot facing requirements, are also provided.
Applications: Suitable for electronic assemblies and sheet metal work, SPACERFIX™ provides a reliable and aesthetically pleasing solution without additional finishing processes.
Materials and Grades: SPACERFIX™ components are available in austenitic stainless steel, 316L stainless steel with molybdenum for corrosion resistance, and HR stainless steel for high mechanical resistance, each with specific visual identifiers.
Installation Procedures: Optimal installation involves crimping nuts from specific sides based on the hole creation method. Precise press stroke positioning and maintaining pressure are emphasized to prevent springback.
Technical Data: Includes torque resistance, push-out force, and tensile force values, along with friction coefficient and recommended maximum tightening torque for different bolt grades.
Tooling Recommendations: Specific tooling is recommended for concealed heads and thin workpieces, with guidelines for using dies with chamfers to ensure material flow and resistance.
Customization and Warranty: Custom-made products for harsh environments with high corrosion resistance are offered. Products are warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship, but no guarantee of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose is provided.
Product Specifications: Specifications for self-clinching standoffs include minimum crimping thickness for flush head and general crimping optimization, detailed in a table format with product codes, dimensions, and mechanical properties.
Fastening Tools: Specific fastening tools, referred to as TOOLIN'FIX, are recommended for proper installation.
Technical Data Table: A comprehensive table lists product codes, dimensions, mechanical properties, force range (700-1100), and weight (0.2 to 1.6).

2009.A 2009.A Think SPACERFIX™ as an alternative to Welded turned spacer: - a long, complex welding process - thread coaxiality not very precise - an unattractive solution Nut + stud + spacer assembly: Assembly is cumbersome because it necessitates holding nut, stud and spacer during assembly. The spacer is usually diffi cult to access during assembly, because it is positioned between the two elements to be joined.
