Press-in Self-anchoring Threaded Inserts Allow for Quick Assembly without Adhesives

The adhesives experts at Chemical Concepts introduce another fastening solution that’s sure to reduce the time and effort put into ensuring a strong and reliable bond. It’s the Keep-Nut from in-house brand, Chem-Set, designed specifically with strength and convenience in mind. With the capacity to withstand up to 300 KG of pressure yet the convenience of an easy-to use threaded design, Chem-Set’s Keep-Nut capably balances both aspects.

Additional benefits of Keep-Nut press-in self-anchoring threaded inserts allow for quick assembly without the need for adhesives, as well as ease of use with CNC machines and standard tools. The Keep-Nut allows for an internal assembly with no external pieces, as well as without any tensile force on the receiving material when the insert isn’t being pulled out.

Assembling Chem-Set’s Keep-Nut is literally as simple as applying pressure. The application process involves three basic steps: preparing the hole in the receiving material, ensuring the correct hold dimensions with a Go/no go gauge and installing the Keep-Nut with pressure. The Keep-Nut is ideal for use on undermount sinks and countertops, stone surfaces as well as glass, ventilated facades, wall-coverings, décor and interiors, furniture, and kitchen and sanitary elements. Its inventive press-in insert with mechanical anchoring is comprised of stainless steel and comes with a set of elastic crowns and a plastic ring for housing the complete assembly. Keep-Nut’s design and application also points to the potential for new products that leverage this patented fastening system in different materials and industries, an expansion that’s sure to come as the Keep-Nut line evolves and proves valuable.
