The Only alternative to weld studs.
The Hank-Clinch stud can easily be applied to various gauges of sheet metal offering a flush fit male thread with a cosmetic finish second to none. Using the proven 'cold flow' technique, they negate the need for unreliable, unsightly and costly welding methods.
Simple Application
Using a standard press, the Hank-Clinch Stud can be installed quickly and efficiently, achieving a totally secure fastening with a high torque resistance. Furthermore, because these parts are installed with a 'squeezing' and not a trauma type force there is little or no damage to the surface finish or coatings, resulting in significantly reduced rejects and rework.
