FlexFix®
Product code DUP 4 | DUP 6
Material stainless steel

Longlife high-performance system

Snaps that are industrially washed must meet high requirements. This includes the high mechanical stress caused by intermittent dewatering presses. The opening values must not change due to wear or degreasing. The two sizes FlexFix® product code DUP 4 and DUP 6 made of stainless steel are ideal for stronger and heavier fabrics and materials and can withstand intensive use over the long term.

The FlexFix® series guarantees excellent dimensional stability, with a spring-elastic and thermostable plastic core. The choice of stainless steel material eliminates the risk of an extreme increase in the opening values (cold welding) due to complete degreasing in the industrial wash.

This high level of durability, thermal stability and longevity also qualifies FlexFix® DUP 4 and DUP 6 for many other highly demanding areas and technical applications. Even salt water, cold and heat cannot affect the fastener. You are on the safe side with this FlexFix® variant made of stainless steel.

Function and advantages

The principle of a snap system is defined by the functionality of the socket. This system is part of the FlexFix® series, in which a flexible high-tech plastic is integrated into the socket, which has spring-elastic properties.

This combination of metal calotte and plastic inlay is rustproof thanks to the stainless steel material, extremely stable and can withstand the highest mechanical loads.

When the stud is pressed into the socket (spring part), the flexible plastic inlay expands so that the head of the stud snaps comfortably into place and is perfectly and securely enclosed. This fastener can be opened again just as easily.

This snap system is self-piercing and can be processed manually, semi-automatically or fully automatically. It is not suitable for knitted fabrics.

Further design options

Due to its diverse properties, stainless steel is at its most beautiful and durable in its pure state. The material stands for performance and an inherently elegant appearance; design options are limited.
