U Clip (Speed Nut)

U Clip (Speed Nut) fasteners are sheet-metal locking clips that combine the strength of a nut with the flexibility of a spring clip. They are manufactured to ASTM, DIN, and ISO standards in spring steel, stainless steel, or bronze alloys. These clips snap onto panel edges or into holes, providing quick and secure fastening with machine screws. Available in zinc plated, stainless, or phosphor bronze finishes, they offer durability, corrosion resistance, and vibration-proof performance. They are widely used in automotive, appliances, electronics, furniture, and sheet-metal assemblies for fast and efficient fastening.
