Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses SPIROL® Series CL6000 and CL6100 Compression Limiters, designed to maintain the integrity of bolted joints in assemblies involving plastic components. These limiters prevent plastic deformation by absorbing compressive loads during bolt tightening.
Specifications:
  • Material: Both series are made from 2024 aluminium, offering a balance of strength, corrosion resistance, machinability, and cost-effectiveness. Aluminium is lightweight, 40% stronger than brass, and lead-free.
  • Series CL6000: Precision machined, knurled design suitable for moulded-in or press-in applications. Rated for ISO Class 10.9/Grade 8 bolts.
  • Series CL6100: Similar to CL6000 but includes a head for additional bearing surface, eliminating the need for washers.
Features & Benefits:
  • Symmetrical design of CL6000 allows for easy installation without orientation.
  • Headed design of CL6100 provides extra bearing surface.
  • Square ends ensure full contact with mating surfaces.
  • Knurling enhances retention within the assembly.
  • Pilot feature allows the part to stand freely in the hole before installation.
Dimensional Data: The document provides detailed dimensions for various nominal bolt sizes (M3 to M10), including inner diameter, body diameter, knurl diameter, head diameter, and recommended hole sizes.
Ordering Information: To order, specify the nominal bolt size, length, material, finish, and series (e.g., CMPL 6 X 8 AK CL6100). Additional diameters and lengths are available upon request.
Contact Information: The document lists contact details for SPIROL's technical centers across Europe, Americas, and Asia, offering application engineering support and assistance with design and cost-saving recommendations.

Series CL6000 & CL6100 Precision Machined Aluminium Compression Limiters-1

PRECISION ALUMINIUM COMPRESSION LIMITERS SPIROL® Series CL6000 and CL6100 Compression Limiters for bolted joint integrity. A Compression Limiter is used to preserve a threaded joint’s integrity. As a bolt is tightened to achieve the required friction between threads, the plastic is compressed. Without a Compression Limiter, plastic will either crack or creep, resulting in the loosening and eventual failure of the joint. The Compression Limiter absorbs the load when the bolt is tightened to its recommended value. The plastic is isolated from excessive compressive loads and plastic integrity is maintained – ensuring that the joint remains intact throughout the life of the product. Series CL6000 Precision Machined - Aluminium: The Series CL6000 is machined from 2024 aluminium as this grade provides the best combination of strength, corrosion resistance, machinability and cost. Additional advantages of aluminium are that it is lightweight (1/3 the weight of brass), it is 40% stronger than brass, and it is lead free. These Limiters can be moulded in or pressed into the assembly. The precision machined ID tolerance allows proper seating on the core pin when moulding into the assembly. When pressed into the assembly, they are designed with a pilot that allows the part to stand freely in the hole prior to completing the installation. Once installed, the knurl provides retention within the hole. The CL6000 is rated for use up to ISO Class 10.9/Grade 8 bolts. Series CL6100 Precision Machined - Headed Aluminium: The CL6100 headed aluminium Compression Limiter is the same as the CL6000, with the addition of a head. The head provides extra bearing surface on the mating component when a flanged bolt or a washer is not used. SPIROL® Knurled CL6000 and CL6100 Compression Limiters are perfect for press-in and moulded-in applications - including highly automated assembly processes. The CL6000 supersedes the CL600 and the CL6100 supersedes the CL601 Compression Limiters
