PSM CELADA Fasteners solutions for secure fastening on plastic materials

Plastic materials are used in a wide range of applications, from lightweight structural components to electronic housings, due to their versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness. However, to fully exploit their potential, it is essential to have fastening systems specifically designed for them. This is where PSM CELADA Fasteners comes into play, offering a wide range of fasteners specifically developed for use with plastic materials.

A complete range of fasteners for plastics

PSM CELADA Fasteners' offering includes several solutions designed to meet the technical requirements of plastic-based applications:

- Hot or ultrasonic inserts
Installed in thermoplastics by heat staking or ultrasonic welding, these provide high torque and pull-out resistance, even in thin walls, thanks to the reverse knurling.

- Heat-staking inserts
These threaded inserts withstand temperatures up to 500 °C and offer tight dimensional tolerances, ideal for large-scale production. Available in thread sizes from M2 to M8.

- Self-tapping screws
Designed to form threads directly into plastic, they provide strong joints in both soft and reinforced materials, reducing stress through optimized geometry.

- Expansion or press-fit elements
Ideal for thermoplastics and thermosets, these are secured by friction or expansion, requiring no pre-threading or tapping.

- Overmolding inserts
Integrated directly into the plastic molding process, they ensure permanent and precise connections from the outset.

- Compression limiters
Crucial for uniform load distribution in cases of vibration or frequent movement, they prevent fastener loss.

- Sealing inserts
Provide hermetic sealing against liquids, dust, and external agents, especially suitable for electronic applications and outdoor environments.

Technical support and guaranteed professionalism

In addition to supplying components, PSM CELADA Fasteners supports customers with pre-production testing and performance analysis. This allows the identification of the most suitable solutions, ensuring material compatibility, fastening reliability, and long-term performance.
