The fixing methods for captive series products can be divided into different installation methods based on their various application scenarios:

• Self-clinching (or press-in type): Simple one-step pressing operation, commonly used in the metal sheet processing industry.
• Expansion (break) type (or: expansion riveting type): Requires less installation force, especially suitable for flanged installation or thin panel installation.
• Floating type: Provides additional radial float to compensate for large misalignment tolerances.
• Snap-in type: Manual installation without the need for special tools.
• PCB board type: Specifically designed for use with printed circuit boards and other composites (such as fiberglass).
• Surface Mount Technology (SMT): An innovative installation method for printed circuit boards (PCBs) that allows for automated installation and avoids potential damage to the circuit board that may occur with traditional installation methods.
