BCT® Rivet Nuts are significantly stronger than standard ones. They provide safe, secure riveting in carbon fiber and composite material structures. /Asset/06b0001_a_1.jpg
Assembled Components & Isolators
Various Assembled Components and Isolators for powertrain fastening are available from EFC. These are highly engineered fasteners for Engine and Transmission applications. These various components present unique solutions to engineering problems associated with fastening and holding engine components together. The designs reduce noise created by vibrations and also help OEM designers use advance light-weight composite plastics for engine systems. Other parts are available to seal fluids.X
Bulge Control Technology (BCT®) Rivet Nuts
(2) BCT® Rivet Nuts by BBA Fastening Systems offer Bulge Control Technology (BCT®), a patented solution to control where the bulge forms when these rivet nuts are installed. This innovative technology creates the first rivet nut with optimal fitting for irregular and oversized holes.BCT® Rivet Nuts are significantly stronger than standard ones. They provide safe, secure riveting in carbon fiber and composite material structures. /Asset/06b0001_a_1.jpg
Panel Clips
(24)The Panel Clip is a panel fastener that offers low insertion, medium retention and some reusability. Used mainly in interior and exterior trim as well as hidden fastener applications.

Quick Connector Assemblies
(27) Quick Connectors for fluid transfer are widely used in applications for automobiles and heavy trucks, off-road and recreational vehicles, marine, and industrial and residential products from HVACR to utilities and much more. They improve the quality of the joints between hoses and tubes, are often reusable and can be integrated with valves, regulators and sensors, to name a few. Quick Connectors are manufactured in a variety of PA and PPA nylons to meet conductive and non-conductive specifications. /Asset/quick_connectors3.jpg RSD Series Screw Grommets
(2) Screw Grommets for Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) Foamed Components come in two sizes fitting Delta PT® 50 and 60 screws. The series has been developed to fasten parts to foamed components, especially those made of EPP. These friction-welding bosses are effective fastening elements for EPP foams and PP honeycomb elements. Through the friction welding process these PP screw grommets are embedded in the EPP foam and securely connect to the molten material. /Asset/301754_a.jpg Snap Over Tree Clips
(16) Snap Lock Push Mount Wire Clips with X-Mas Tree Base enable one snap-in clip to lock in different bundle diameters and reduce the number of parts required for assemblies. These parts are available with 2 prong styles, and both have an umbrella for a secure fit. /Asset/d-01772m.jpg Stud Mount Cable Ties
Stud Mount Cable Ties provide superior holding ability on a threaded stud. They self-lock onto the threads of a screw or stud with no nut required. Like standard cable ties, they are available in a wide range bundle diameters to secure wire, cable and tubes. /Asset/091374_a_1.jpg Swivel Clips
(20) Swivel clips provide complete 360° rotation for infinite and independent mounting possibilities. Each two-component assembly rotates with respect to one another and can accommodate different panel sizes and orientations, eliminating the number of fasteners required for a given application, process or installation. By mixing and matching components, unique solutions can be created: cable tie strap with fir tree, double cable tie strap, cable tie strap with edge clip or tape-on, cable tie strap with c-clip, double c-clip, and more. /Asset/36p50_a.jpg W-Base Retainers
(12) W-Base Retainers are an innovative alternative to multi-component plastic fasteners. An expansive range of clip designs, styles and colors makes this retainer highly versatile for a wide range of applications in many industries. /Asset/w-base_clip_2.jpg
