Anti-Rotation Clip

Emhart Anti-Rotation Clips and Grounding Studs build an ideal system for the fastening of complete grounding connections in the car. An application with increasing importance in today’s automotive industry. The Anti-Rotation Clip provides highest possible security in avoiding the twisting of the fastened cables.
Application Example
 
Cable Channel
Cable Channels are used for the secure routing and fastening of complex wire harnesses. Thanks to their special, individually designed geometry these fasteners provide a maximum protection against mechanical damage.

 

Application Example

 
Cable Retainers
Cable Retainers provide for secure routing and fastening of individual or multiple cable leads - even of differing diameters. The Retainers can be designed, depending on the material, such that the cables are held firmly but flexibly without the danger of mechanical damage.

 

Application Example

 
Cable Straps
Cable Straps provide for secure routing and fastening of complete wire harnesses, also for cables of differing diameters. Emhart Cable Straps are made from PA. They are therefore thermally stable and highly flexible in a conditioned state - for reliable bundling and clamping applications.

 

Application Example

 
Cover Caps
Cover Caps provide a decorative cover for any kind of car body opening with a clean finish. Cover Caps with the optional multifinger locking system are easily assembled and detached for uses such as the attachment of carpets, soft trim, insulation or trim covers in the vehicle interior. When the multifinger locking system is used on a stud, the cap can be assembled with very low pressure - either by manual, semi-automated or fully-automated processes. Emhart Cover Caps are manufactured from POM, PA and PP.

 

Application Example

 
Molding Clips
Molding Clips are used for the secure fastening of trim strips and sealings of any kind and shape. The Emhart “No-Hole” system – assembly of the fastener without the need for holes – provides a solution without risk of corrosion. Trim strips can also be pre-assembled with the fastener and thus be applied to the car body as a complete part in one assembly operation step. A good way to reduce manufacturing complexity and cost. Emhart Molding Clips are mostly made from

 

Application Example

 
Plastic Nuts
Plastic nuts increasingly substitute the conventional metal nuts. There are good reasons for this: excellent mechanical features, low weight, low price and no corrosion. Plastic nuts have the additional advantage of being self-locking. Optional locking tabs can assure an easy socket assembly. By using an appropriate flange design a prestressed condition guaranteeing a firm fit is created without the need for an additional washer. But Emhart also produces plastic nuts with integrated TPE washers. Our nuts are made out of POM, PA and glass fibre reinforced PA.
 
Pin and Grommet
The Emhart Pin & Grommet is ideal for securing two panels or sheets together or e.g. for fastening a module to the car body. When set, the body of the grommet spreads into the designated holes of the two materials and builds a tight connection that meets a broad range of performance specifications, depending on type and material. Only little push-on forces are needed to assemble these fasteners, at the same time the push-off forces stay constantly high even after a number of assemblies and disassemblies.
 
Pipe Clips
These elements provide for exact routing, mechanical protection and secure assembly of individual or multiple pipes of different diameters in one clip, e.g. for brake or fuel lines. The fastening element can hold up to 10 pipes. Today, the demand for “silent” car interiors is increasing. Emhart therefore developes individual solutions that virtually avoid the transfer of noise and vibrations to the car body by using additional flexible inserts, 2 component constructions or the innovative “Honeycomb” clip design. Emhart Pipe Clips are made out of POM, POM/TPE, PA and TEEE.

 

Application Example

 
Push Buttons
Push Buttons are used for fastening and attaching of carpets, soft trim, insulation or trim covers in the vehicle interior. Other applications for these easy detachable parts are the attachments of cable and/or wire harness retainers. When the multifinger locking system is used on a stud, the button can be assembled with very low pressure - either by manual, semi-automated or fully-automated processes. Emhart Push Buttons are manufactured from POM, PA and PP.
