PSM Angle Nuts are spring steel fasteners designed to provide a right-angled, captive threaded attachment by leveraging the edge of a panel. They allow one component to attach perpendicularly to another without the need for extra brackets or hardware. This makes them ideal where space, cost, or aesthetics limit the use of conventional nut and bolt assemblies.
Advantages
> Faster assembly
> Provides fixings for differing materials
> Low cost
Material
CS60, CS70 carbon steel
Method of Assembly
Screw fastener to panel and bring leading edge of “panel for assembly” under returned edge of fastener, for a vibration proof, right angled fixing.
When specifying, please state:
- Quantity
- Prefix (CBAN)
- Part No.
- Finish code (e.g. 6000 CBAN-0308-13)
Key Features
Fast and simple assembly, attach the nut to the panel, then secure the mating part under the nut’s returned edge with a screw.
Compatible with a wide range of materials, allowing mixed-metal or composite assemblies.
Low-cost solution that replaces more complex welded or bracketed joints.
Vibration-resistant design—spring tension maintains clamping pressure and prevents loosening.
Compact configuration, providing reliable 90-degree fixings without additional clips or components.
Applications & Use Cases
Angle Nuts are used when components need to be mounted at 90 degrees without welding or using bulky brackets. They are common in enclosures, structural frames, and sheet metal assemblies where space is limited but a strong, removable fixing is required. The spring action of the nut allows for secure retention and minor flexibility under vibration, making it well suited for applications in automotive, appliance, and industrial equipment assemblies. Angle Nuts deliver an efficient, durable, and low-maintenance fastening option for engineers seeking to simplify perpendicular connections in sheet metal or lightweight assemblies.
