How do I use a nylon fir tree clip?

You’ll need a few tools. First of all, with our Klip-It fir tree fixings, forget the pneumatic or manual riveting pliers. Also, make sure you have a good assortment of nylon fir tree fixings in different sizes. So you can choose the ones best suited to your project. Start by drilling a hole of the appropriate size in the parts to be assembled, using a drill adapted to the material of your panels. Sheet metal, plastic, etc. Make sure that the diameter of the hole matches that of the nylon fir tree fixing you have chosen. Then insert the nylon fir tree fixings into the hole you have drilled. Apply firm, even pressure to ensure that the nylon fir tree fixing is correctly tightened. Once tightened, check that the nylon fir tree fixings are securely in place. And that it provides a solid connection between the two parts.

What are the advantages of plastic fir tree fixings?

Firstly, nylon is a corrosion-resistant material. This makes it an ideal choice for applications requiring protection against external elements. Unlike steel or brass, nylon will not rust or corrode over time. This makes it a durable and reliable material for fasteners used outdoors or in damp environments. What’s more, nylon fir tree pins offer a very good seal. Their fir tree design creates uniform pressure on the fastening surface. This pressure is particularly advantageous in applications requiring a seal (air or water). Perfect for sheet metal components for building cladding or fastening systems for plasterboard. Nylon is also a lightweight, non-conductive material, which can be useful in certain applications.
