Modules and Subassemblies.
Plastic nuts for many different applications.
For many parts that are
to be fastened
Progress with small parts leads to
security with large processes.
Low weight, low mounting forces but
secure assembly
Less weight without having to reduce security
and comfort; but quality and functional reliability are increased – this is achieved by using
lighter materials like aluminium, thinner steel
sheet, and by using, instead of metal parts,
plastic elements with creative and intelligent
design.
The support of the accelerator pedal, the fasteners of the lights, the covers and panels, or
the inserts and rear shelves: many parts can
be fastened easily and with a low mounting
torque. We offer plastic nuts with most different flange diameters, shapes and lengths for
every application. A major advantage of the
plastic nut is its pre-formed thread.
Even though the weight of the assembly is
reduced, a higher mechanical solidity and
thermal stability can be achieved. This is
ensured by the use of a plastic material with
special thermoplastic matrix and glass-fibre
reinforcement. As the thread is already preformed, the necessary twist-on torque is reduced. This leads to a significantly improved
adjustment range between twist-on and overtwisting torque and the nut can be mounted
with a lower torque. Ideally suited for thin
steel sheets and sensitive parts.

Panels and covers.
Carpeting and insulation blankets
Caps for the covering of openings which require a clean finish. Snap fasteners for the
fastening of carpeting, panelling, insulation or
covers in the vehicle interior. But also for fixing cable and pipe retainers. The multi-finger
locking system as stud retainer ensures that
the snap fastener can be mounted with only
little pressure – either manually, semi or fully
automatically.
Wheel Arch Shells
In contrast to today’s frequent industrial use
of dowels and screws for the fixing of wheel
arch shells, Emhart Teknologies offers its own
and significantly more efficient system. It
consists of a clip and a T-stud which are set
fully-automatically by a Tucker stud welding
system on the body-in-white. In the final assembly, the clip is just pushed manually onto
the T-stud and is locked in place. The main
advantages are, apart from a quick, easy, and
tool-free assembly, its absolute gas- and water-tightness and the low height of this studand-clip solution.
Underbody panelling
Already today we are offering a wide range
of systems solutions for the fastening of underbody panelling. Our product range covers
components ranging from plastic nuts with
pre-formed threads to fastening elements already mounted on the body-in-white.
Underbody panelling with pre-assembled
plastic nuts is the standard in the automotive
industry today. The future in panelling assembly, however, is tool-free assembly with simple
push-on systems. UB-Fast. Underbody panelling has just to be pushed onto the fastening
elements welded on the body-in-white.
All components of this fastening solution form
one perfectly matching system. From welding
tools to fastening elements – everything from
a single source at Emhart.

Economical solutions
A large number of our fastening elements
is used with cable harnesses. Cable ties,
bundling clips, cable retainers, cable channels and parts for secure earthing contact
with anti-rotation protection are parts of the
fastening concept for on-board electrical
systems. These parts are also developed according to customer specification and meet all
standards concerning safety, environmental
protection, and conditions of assembly.
Standardized Fasteners –
Modular Clips
Customer-specified parts – cable ties,
bundling clips and cable channels
The standardized Emhart components are a
cost-effective and efficient fastening solution
for cable harnesses of the most different sizes
and thicknesses. System-clip modules cover
the most different demands.
Based on steadily increasing demands on application for the routing of cable harnesses to
be reliable and efficient, our precisely fitting
fastening elements are employed and form
the optimum connection between cable harness and mounting location.
High cost-effectiveness, simple manual assembly, smallest possible dimensions and compensation for tolerances are the characteristics of
the Emhart solution for cable harness fastening.
Automatic systems will be used more frequently in future – and we have got the solution here.
Cable channels hold cables of most different
cross-sections and basic materials exactly in
a pre-defined location and save space. As a
further advantage they protect cables against
damage. Due to its fastening on a weld stud,
a durable and reliable mounting which lasts
for a car’s lifetime is guaranteed.

Trim Strips and Sealing.
Function for design
PLASTIFAST®
A large number of trim strips on the vehicle
exterior, as for example on the sides, the tail
and the roof area, need secure and durable
fastening for the complete lifetime of an automobile and have to resist different environmental influences (temperature, road salt etc)
as well as automatic car wash systems.
Emhart Teknologies offers an automatic assembly system for a wide range of applications,
for example for trim-strip fasteners as well as
for sealing.
The hole-free fastening method for trim strips
offers the advantage of being an absolutely
water-tight fastening. In addition, thanks to
the use of plastics there is no possibility of
corrosion at all. This is one of the basic requirements, for example in the area of the
outer sill.
We also offer different solutions for assemblies with drilled holes. The fastening element has to be developed according to the
supplier’s specifications as well as to the conditions of the fastening on the car body. Taken
together, these two conditions are decisive
for an easy and economical assembly in the
production line.

Assembly Types and Materials.
Precision Performance for the Automotive Industry.
Fastening types / assembly
Materials / properties
A wide range of different fastening types is
covered by Emhart and designed for each
customer individually. This includes for example applications for coarse thread studs
or T-studs or also for applications with drilled
holes, like fastening in round or elongated
holes. Low push-on forces and high pull-off
forces guarantee easy and thus economical
processes in the production line.
Careful selection of materials guarantees constant properties already with the setting of the
clips. Even the fulfilment of demands close
to the limit, as for example concerning high
temperature ranges, as well as the demand
for material versions that are environmentally
friendly and easy to recycle can be guaranteed
at any time.
Most different materials can be processed: PA,
POM, TEEE, TPE – only to mention the materials used most frequently. Depending on the
mounting location, clip colours are agreed with
the customer. A temperature range between 40°C up to 180°C is covered by the fastening
systems made by Emhart Teknologies. But also
customer requirements for temperatures exceeding this range can be met.
