One Touch Fasteners

 (10 product groups)

What are One-Touch Fasteners?

One-touch fasteners are the ideal solution for applications requiring rapid and recurring changeover of tooling or setups. One-touch fasteners provide a quick, simple and secure change-over solution - no time wasted in unfastening screws or other permanent fixings, and no opportunity for lost fixings in your machinery.

What are the different types of one-touch fasteners?

We stock locating bushes designed to provide accurate and repeatable positioning in various mechanical applications. These bushes serve as guides or supports for shafts or pins, ensuring proper alignment and minimizing play, which is crucial in precision machinery and tooling setups. Our locating bushes are of particularly useful in soft metals, such as aluminium where receiving surfaces may wear.

Our spacers adjust the thread lengths of one-touch fasteners to accommodate various thread reaches on mounting panels of varying thicknesses.

Also included in our range are riser plates and scale plates, pins for one-touch fasteners and various clamping and locking fasteners. 

For more information visit our Guide to One-Touch Fasteners over at our Knowledge Centre.

Locating Bushes

Locating bushings work in line with one-touch fasteners to precisely position and align components. They offer a secure and precise means of finding and retaining items in place.

It is meant to offer accurate and exact finding and holding of items in place, as well as secure panel and cover fastening. The clamping bushes, on the other hand, can serve as receivers for one-touch fasteners. One-touch fasteners may be installed without the need of bushings.

These are widely used in a wide range of industrial applications, including automotive, aerospace, and medical devices. They are resistant to temperatures of up to 180C and can be utilised for applications such as drive belts or machine coverings.

One-Touch Fastener - Cam Locking - Retract

One-touch fasteners with cam locking retractable are ideal for applications requiring quick and recurring changes over tooling or setups using a single touch. It is durable and provides a secure and robust fastening solution.

It has a one-touch cam lever that fully retracts the clamping shank when the workpiece is released, allowing the clamp to be engaged or disengaged safely. To do this while the lever is off, turn it to the on position. When you hear a click, it will be fully clamped. To release, turn the handle back to the off position.

These are widely used in a wide range of industrial applications, including automotive, aerospace, and medical devices. They are resistant to temperatures of up to 130C and can be utilised for applications such as drive belts or machine coverings.

  • It is durable and provides a secure and robust fastening solution.

One-Touch Fastener - Pull Clamping

One-touch fasteners with pull clamping are ideal for applications requiring quick and recurring changes over tooling or setups using a single touch. It is durable and provides a secure and robust fastening solution. It is easily removable and repositionable while keeping the connection in place.

It comprises two components: a pull clamp and a metal base. The metal base is on one side of the fastener, while the pull clamp resides on the other. When the two components are joined, the pull clamp mechanism connects with the item, securely keeping it in place. Pull the two halves apart to release the object using the pull clamp mechanism, which is easily accomplished with a single touch.

These are widely used in a wide range of industrial applications, including automotive, aerospace, and medical devices. They can be utilised for applications such as drive belts or machine coverings.
