Bonding Nuts

Bonding nut: an internal thread on a bonded base, used where the fastener has to sit on the inaccessible side of a panel.

Product overviewOverview

Bond strength depends on three things: surface preparation, adhesive thickness and cure. A bonded nut puts the thread on the blind side without a hole through the panel, so the visible face stays uninterrupted. Load is carried by the bonded base in shear, and the thread has to be protected from adhesive during bonding, since cured adhesive in the thread cannot be removed without damaging it.

Material: Carbon Steel / Stainless Steel. It is bonded with structural adhesive after the surfaces are prepared.

Key featuresFeatures

  • Thread on the blind side with no through hole.
  • Load transfers through the adhesive in shear, avoiding hole stress concentration.
  • Suits thin sheet, composites and non-weldable substrates.
  • Bases with a glue reservoir or knurl control bond-line thickness and add mechanical keying.

Typical applicationsApplications

  • Curtain wall and decorative panels
  • Appliance exterior parts
  • Composite panel attachments

Selection notesSelection

Use a masking plug or a thread-safe adhesive application; adhesive that reaches the thread has to be cleared before cure, not after.

Frequently asked questionsFAQ

How is adhesive kept out of the thread?
By masking the thread during bonding, or by applying adhesive only to the base. Once cured, adhesive in the thread cannot be cleaned out without damaging the thread form.
What matters during installation of the Bonding Nuts?
Bond it with structural adhesive after preparing the surfaces. Thread on the blind side with no through hole.

Manufacturing and inspection

Pull-off and shear tests are sampled per lot, recording whether failure is interfacial or cohesive.We recommend a pilot assembly at the actual torque and mating part before locking the process parameters for volume.
