Twist Tacks

Fasten to Steel Tubing or Aluminum Extrusions... Without Drilling.

Fastening takes place when the knurled section of the fastener engages the base metal.

The Twist-Tack is a self-piercing, one-step metal fastener that attaches thin materials to steel tubing, aluminum extrusions, or lightweight metal castings. Permanent fastening is achieved when the knurled section of the Twist-Tack engages the base metal with a cutting, twisting and wedging action. The Twist-Tack was developed for manufacturers who attach plastic, fabric, rubber and other materials to metal.

One-step fastener
Joins Disimilar Material
Hundreds of pounds of withdrawal resistence
Tamper resistant
Fastens permanently
Self-piercing, no drilling required

One step fastening
Twist-Tacks fasten quickly because they punch through the attachment and base metal, eliminating the need for drilling.

Joins dissimilar materials, such as plastic to aluminum
Twist-Tacks can be used to attach a multitude of light gauge materials to a variety of base metals.

High withdrawal resistance
An anchor cone is formed from the Twist-Tack's wedging motion in the base metal, creating hundreds of pounds of withdrawal resistance.
