U-Nuts, also called U-Shaped Speed Nuts®, are self-retained in the screw-receiving position to provide simple and rapid attachment of mating panels. They will not turn when the screw is driven and will not corrode or freeze on screw threads. Typically, U-nuts are used where a full bearing surface on the lower leg is desired. During assembly, these high-performance, single thread nuts are placed over the edge of a stamped panel, or through a pre-stamped slot, then pushed until the fastener inner back locates against the plastic or metal panel edge or snaps into the clearance hole. In addition, the U-Nut's impression actually cleans out rust, dirt or paint clots from the screw threads as they are removed.

J-Type U-Nuts press easily into a self-retained position over panel edges or in center panel locations. They are ideally suited for blind assembly or hard-to-reach installation. They offer floating alignment to speed production and lessen rejection. No special tools, skills or equipment are required. Riveting, welding, clinching, staking and other secondary fastening devices are eliminated.

Multi-Threaded Self-Retaining U-Nuts, also known as Tapped Barrel U-Nuts, are primarily used in the automotive industry where extra strength is required. The strength of the tapped barrel u-nut is equal to the machine screw used. It allows single-wrench tightening of the thread assembly. In addition, some multi-threaded u-nuts are available in Free Spin or Prevailing Torque designs.

A Lightweight, Self-Retaining Nut Solution That Allows for Automated Installation

Achieve as much as a 400% increase in productivity by automating your installation of multi-threaded u-nuts with these Collated U-Nuts. They are stacked, snapping into one another, and are installed using an ergonomically designed pneumatic hand or bench mount tool. During assembly, these high-performance U-nuts are placed over the edge of a stamped panel, or through a pre-stamped slot, and are simply pushed until the rear of the fastener locates against the panel edge or snaps into the clearance hole. They can be used on either plastic or steel panels. Collated U-Nuts are available in M6 and M10 thread sizes and in the most common finishes.

Single Thread U-Nuts are used where a full bearing surface on the lower leg is desired. During assembly, these high-performance "U" nuts are placed over the edge of a stamped panel, or through a pre-stamped slot, and are simply pushed until the rear of the fastener locates against the plastic or metal panel edge or snaps into the clearance hole. They are self-retained in the screw-receiving position to provide simple, rapid attachment of mating panels and cannot turn as the screw is driven.

These U-Nuts will not freeze on screw threads. In fact, the U-Nut's impression actually cleans out rust, dirt or paint clots from the screw threads as they are removed.

Single Thread High-Torque U-Nuts are equally at home on metal or plastic. These unique fasteners bring extra strength, reliability and economy wherever vibration, impact, or migration prevail.

They accept power driven screws readily, discourage cross-threading, won't clog with paint or freeze to screw threads. They are self-retaining over a wide range of panel thicknesses, yet permit trouble-free removal. Unusually high clamp loads are attainable. Prevailing torque is inherent in the design.

These Single Thread U-Nuts accommodate an unusually wide range of panel thicknesses from 0.025" to 0.150" which satisfies most needs for sheet metal and plastics assembly. A single wide-range U-Nut can replace as many as 5 or 6 separate size nuts required to cover the same capacity and it can be supplied in 8 AB through 16 AB thread sizes.
