What is Heat Staking?

 

Heat Staking is an extremely quiet and efficient form of plastic joining.

Heatstaking, also referred to as "heading or riveting", utilizes the controlled flow of molten plastic to capture or retain another component, most commonly of a different material.

 

Heat Staking is extremely beneficial because there is virtually no limit on quantity, size, or plane.

 

Heat Staking provides the added benefits of minimal tool wear, a safe environment free of metal flakes and dust, and low maintenance costs.
