Group of Powertrain Fastener plastFIX

HONSEL plastFIX®

Has been specially developed for use in plastic modules. Apart from the preassembly possibility for the sleeve/bolt system, HONSEL plastFIX offers the benefit of a secure joint thanks to the limited application of axial force to the plastic. At the same time, the concept guarantees a hard bolt joint with expansion of the bolt for the highest possible protection against loosening.

Advantages

  • limitation of the preload force on plastic
  • strain hardening of the sleeves guarantees high strengths
  • large radial clearance compensation between bolt and sleeve
  • maximum retraction of the bolt into the sleeve ensures a secure joining process
  • bolt and sleeve are permanently joined together
  • large contact surface areas mean low surface pressures
  • high cleanliness demands can be satisfied
