The 8G8062.5X5.0 part of the Dremec family is a self-clinching nut with an 8-32 UNF thread designed for installation in thin sheets of metal. It can be used as a strong, secure, and permanent mount for a variety of components and fasteners. It has a flanged, rounded head that provides additional strength, a self-locking design, and a zinc-plated finish for better corrosion and oxidation protection. It is ideal for appliations that require a strong and reliable hold in thin, soft materials. It is a cost-effective alternative to welding and traditional nut and bolt assembly for many types of projects.
