Stocked from ENC-90H18S / CL-24 to ENC-135H31S / CL-38 (size designation). ### Industries that specify Clinch Clips - **Safety guards:** The squeezed form retains mesh without a protruding bolt. - **Panel fabrication:** Height, width and depth are selected from the mesh and edge. - **Wire fencing:** Clinch clips close around mesh intersections and fence wire. - **Animal enclosures:** Cold-rolled clips provide repeatable field attachment. - **Signage & cladding:** Fast, vibration-resistant fixing of thin material. - **Consumer goods & toys:** Riveted pivots and permanent light assemblies. ### Typical applications - using a squeeze tool for consistent closure - checking the closed dimension rather than the free clip size - closing a clinch clip around wire mesh - selecting the H×W×D form for the panel - blind fixing where only one side can be reached - riveted pivots that must stay tight but still turn ### Service conditions to specify against - **Marine and coastal:** Available in A4 (316) stainless for chloride exposure — coastal structures, pool halls, water treatment and deck hardware, where A2 will eventually pit. ### Where to use something else - Do not hand-close a clinch clip if the joint depends on a controlled final dimension; uneven closure leaves the mesh loose. - Not for a joint that has to come apart in service — removal means drilling the rivet out.

Below is the complete size table together with material, standard and application guidance. ## What Are Clinch Clips? Clinch Clips are rivets defined by Trade series (wire-mesh clinch clips). They are selected by size designation and the dimensional characteristics shown below, and are available in a range of materials and finishes to suit the application and environment. ## Materials & Finishes Common materials include carbon steel (typically zinc plated or hot-dip galvanized), hardened or case-hardened steel where wear matters, and stainless steel A2 (304) or A4 (316) for corrosion resistance. Specify the material, hardness where relevant, and the surface finish appropriate to your application and environment. ## Pricing Clinch Clips are supplied to order. Pricing starts from approximately US$0.050 per piece for standard sizes in carbon steel; final pricing depends on size, material, finish and order quantity (MOQ applies). Submit your exact configuration with the quote form above. Custom manufacturing · Made to drawing ## Need a clinch clips outside the standard range? Grip range is what a special usually changes — a joint thickness that falls between two standard rivets. Made by cold heading or drawing. Minimum order from 2,000 pieces; samples within 7 days of drawing approval.

The stages below are where its class and finish are actually decided. 1. ![Wire rod feeding into a cold heading machine](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/09-wire-rod-feed-cold-heading-machine.webp) 01 **Cold heading** Wire rod is drawn to size and cold-formed into blanks. Forming rather than cutting keeps the grain flow continuous around the head, which is where a bolt is most likely to fail. Head dimensions and under-head radius checked at set-up and per shift. 2. ![Thread rolling machine producing bolt threads](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/03-thread-rolling-machine-bolt-production.webp) 02 **Thread rolling** Threads are rolled between hardened dies rather than cut. Rolled threads are stronger in fatigue than cut threads and hold pitch and flank angle far more consistently across a batch. Go / no-go ring gauges to ISO 965 tolerance class 6g. 3. ![Baskets of bolts staged for heat treatment](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/05-heat-treatment-baskets-black-bolts.webp) 03 **Heat treatment** Quench-and-temper brings carbon and alloy steel to the property class ordered — 8.8, 10.9 or 12.9 — with the furnace charge tracked so a finished lot can be traced back to it. Core hardness and tensile tested per lot to ISO 898-1. 4. ![Zinc plated bolts in a treatment basket](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/23-zinc-plated-bolts-treatment-basket.webp) 04 **Surface treatment** Zinc, zinc-nickel, hot-dip galvanizing, black oxide, phosphate and Dacromet, selected against the service environment rather than against the price list. Coating thickness and neutral salt spray hours to ISO 9227. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What standard are Clinch Clips manufactured to?
