These nuts have good chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic. Also known as broach style captive nuts, press them into a drilled or punched hole in plastic and soft metal with an arbor press or similar pressure tool. Installation requires access to both sides of the panel. Knurls on the bottom of the nut hold them firmly in place. A tin plating provides corrosion resistance to chemicals and salt water.
