PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener SJ3742 used for?
The 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener SJ3742 is designed to solve the labor-intensive and high cost problem of traditional fastening methods. It provides a high-strength alternative that's easy to use.
-
How strong is the bond of 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener SJ3742?
Unlike other reclosables, the stems interlock with each other resulting in five times the closure strength as compared to typical hook-and-loop fasteners.
-
Is it possible to remove or reposition items that are fixed by using 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener SJ3742?
Yes, you can easily remove or reposition items without damaging them. Just pull apart your fastened objects and they will detach cleanly—no snaps, no hooks, no loops.
3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener SJ3742 is a black roll good without pressure sensitive adhesive that has a stem density of 170. 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fasteners without pressure sensitive adhesive can be attached to surfaces by sewing, stapling and ultrasonically fusing to many polypropylene materials or use of liquid adhesives which bond polypropylene. Dual Lock SJ3742 overcomes the often difficult alignment and installation problems of screws and hidden fasteners, offering simple installation with no special tools required. 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fasteners are positive-locking, blind fasteners designed for attaching automotive trim components. The products feature mushroom-shaped polyolefin stems that snap together, forming a high tensile closure. Dual Lock fasteners are used primarily to secure rigid and semi-rigid surfaces such as trim or door panels, instrument panel bezels, headliners and other automotive interior and exterior trim.
How It Works
The reclosable fastener has mushroom-shaped polyolefin stems that snap together. When two pieces of 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener are pressed together, the stems flex and the mushroom heads slide past each other. After passing the opposing mating piece, the stems snap back into their original position and the opposing mushroom heads interlock. These fasteners can provide high tensile strength but can be opened by simply cleaving or peeling open the closure.
Alignment and re-alignment are easy and no special tools are required. This means that they can be used to attach components before they enter the final assembly plant, thus helping to reduce the number of parts and the length of assembly time.
Stem Densities
3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fasteners can be mixed and matched to meet the needs of the application. Combinations of stem densities and the engaged area provide adjustable and proportional engagement and disengagement force. Dual Lock™ fasteners are offered in three different densities (stems per square inch): 170, 250 and 400. The Dual Lock fastener SJ3742 has 170 stems per square inch (25mm), offering the tightest hold, and can be mated to Type 170, 250 or 400.
Recommended Applications
3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fasteners can replace conventional mechanical fasteners in a wide range of assembly and attachment applications where reclosability or serviceability is desired. Dual Lock fasteners are used primarily to secure rigid and semi-rigid surfaces such as trim or door panels, instrument panel bezels, headliners and other automotive interior and exterior trim. Some examples of applications include:
- Vehicle headliners
- Attaching accessories and equipment
- Attaching window and door trim panels
- Vibration and sound damping control
- CHMSL cover plates
- Center console flanges
- Interior trim
- Sunroof rings
3M Science Delivers Closures You Can Count On
3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fasteners are ideal for many applications where a high strength, reclosable fastening system is required. 3M engineers have uniquely combined physics and materials science to bring the automotive industry reliable fasteners that supply high performance even after exposure to high moisture levels and wide temperature ranges. For applications that require a slide-in piece and multiple closures, look no further than the long-lasting durability of the 3M™ Dual Lock™ Reclosable Fastener SJ3742. It is yet another outstanding example of how 3M technologies advance operations in the automotive industry, providing both ease of use and superior results.
