Tinnerman ball-stud fasteners were originally developed as spring catch fasteners on aircraft access doors, inspection panels, sealing strips and other similar assemblies requiring repeated disengagement. Their versatility soon found them used extensively in other fields where they secured kitchen cabinet doors, removable toe plates, electronic cabinets, protective covers, etc. There is no direct contact between the stud and panel on surfaces which eliminates wear or chipping of painted or porcelain surfaces and resulting corrosion. When latched, spring legs of the clip continually bear inward on the spherical or serrated studs, holding latched unit snug against the panel. Where adjustability or wide latching ranges are required, the serrated stud is used. They are mainly used for attaching compressional materials such as rubber, fabric insulation, etc. Ball-Stud Speed Clip Fastener application: The Speed Clip is riveted in position on the panel with either plain or 100 degree counter-sunk head rivets, the Ball-Stud is riveted, or screwed into the mating panel. The panels are snapped together, owing to the resiliency of the spring legs, misalignment resulting from a normal amount of manufacturing tolerances can be readily absorbed.
