DESIGN GUIDE

PREPARING THE HOLE

Holes may be punched or drilled, so long as a tolerance of -0.00/+0.1 mm is maintained.

ASSEMBLY

To reduce the footprint on the opposite side of the sheet metal, it is essential to always use a punch of the proper size and shape. For best results, we recommend using a press. However, small quantities may be installed manually.

LOAD DIRECTION

Although the joined part may be affixed on either side of the bush, the best results are achieved when fastening is done on the shank side.

NOTE: STANDOFFS (ARBSO)

When space is not a key concern, you will get better performance using the next size up in terms of the shank.

STANDARD MATERIAL

Mild steel.
