Chapco installs a full range of self-clinching and mechanical fasteners directly into sheet metal components, integrating hardware insertion into the fabrication flow so parts arrive ready for assembly. Capabilities include:
PEM standard fasteners: self-clinching nuts, studs, standoffs, and spacers permanently pressed into the sheet for strong, reusable threads without welding or loose hardware.
Custom hardware: non-standard, customer-specified, and application-specific fasteners sourced and installed to print
PEM insertion with auto-feed: automated fastener feed systems for high-volume, high-repeatability production and faster cycle times on larger runs
POP rivets, spin rivets, standard rivets, and rivet nuts (Riv-Nuts / rivet-nut threaded inserts) for blind-side fastening, thin-gauge joining, and adding load-bearing threads to sheet metal
Chapco applies a full range of protective and decorative surface finishes to fabricated sheet metal components, coordinating finishing and outside processing within the production flow so parts arrive coated, marked, and assembly-ready. Capabilities include:
