KAPTI® Limiter is a threadless rivet sleeve that reliably protects your plastic components from cracking and creeping, even under high clamping forces.
The mechanical riveting process creates a permanent, form-fit connection between the element and the component—resulting in a stable, load-bearing joint. This ensures that the clamping force is effectively maintained during bolted assembly.
Versatile in use: The KAPTI® Limiter fits a variety of plastic components and allows the same element geometry to be used across different component thicknesses.
Advantages
- Component protection
Protects against cracking in the component by absorbing the compressive stresses during screw fastening. - Preload force protection
Prevents the plastic from creeping and thus secures the preload force permanently. - Flexibility
One element for different component thicknesses enables flexible design. - Tightness
The sealing lips ensure a media-tight connection. - Cost-effectiveness
Press-integrated processing enables cost-efficient production. - Environmentally friendly
Mechanical fastening without heat input preserves material integrity.
