Self-locating shanks properly position the nuts without the need for pilots or complicated electrodes and further serve to protect threads from weld splatter, making time-consuming splatter-removal operations unnecessary.
Engineered projections prevent burnouts in thin sheets.
A round head eliminates any need for tedious, time-consuming indexing.
PEM weld nuts are available in steel (Type WN) and stainless steel (Type WNS) in thread sizes ranging from 4-40 through 1/4-20 and M3 through M6.
Their compact profile enables these weld nuts to fit on narrow flanges.
Stainless types offer the added benefits of corrosion-resistance and nonmagnetic properties.
PEM self-locating projection weld nuts can be installed easily and permanently in steel or stainless sheets as thin as 0.8mm.
