• Intended for high vibration application points on thermoplastic parts such as bumpers and clips.
• Some straight cracks might be located in high vibration areas like plastic supports under the hood.
• To counteract the vibrations, these clips are used because the footprint is larger than the Z-Clip.
• The extra width covers more surface area and adds rigidity.
• The larger footprint allows it to be used horizontally and vertically.
• This small design element will cut cycle time and save technicians extra steps.
• The leads are notched like someone took an axe to a tree, allowing them to be snapped off with a hand, instead of having to go back with snips.
• The time savings does not stop there: if sunken deep enough the leads will break below the surface of the plastic eliminating the need to go back over with a grinder later.
• Over time these simple improvements make the difference in profitability and not going over the allocated time.
