Description: The push pin fastener is a reusable plastic fastener that provides
low-medium installation efforts with high retention and shear performance. Typical
push pin designs consist of a pin and a body that interact to function over a predetermined
panel stack-up. Performance depends on the exact hole size and panel thickness.
Many different head configurations and body shapes are available and can be developed
for new applications.
Typical Materials: Nylon 6/6
Hole Size: 5.0 – 12.0 mm diameter
Panel Thickness: 0.8 mm and Up
