The application will determine the correct fastener:
Is the application non-structural with no mass consideration?
Consider the CLoc® 2000 Series
Is the application semi-structural with some mass to consider?
Consider the CLoc® 4000 or 6000 Series (if lip or panel overlap greater than 1.00)
Is available lip or panel overlap restrictive? (width required to mount receptacle)
• .355 to .500 – Consider the CLoc® 2500 Series
• .500 to .710 – Consider the CLoc® 26000/2700/2800 Series
• .710* or more – Consider the CLoc® 4000 or 6000 Series (.860* for SK244/245 Rec)
*See diagram on Page 2 or Page 15 for panel configuration/restrictions.
Is weight a factor?
Consider the Skytanium® CLoc® ZG Series for 30% to 50% Weight savings (without sacrificing steel strength ratings)
Do you prefer a Rivet Receptacle? A crimp Receptacle? A Backing Nut Receptacle? Or a bonded Receptacle?
