FOR THERMOPLASTICS AND THERMOSETS
COMPRESSION LIMITERS are either pressed in or installed by heat or ultrasonic staking. Once installed, they prevent the plastic from deforming under the clamping pressure of the bolt.
CAPTIVE SCREWS are the combination of a compression limiter and screw that is “captive” within the compression limiter. This reduces the number of parts that need to be installed, thereby significantly reducing assembly times.
