Quarter-Turn Fastener Pairing

Thousands of different fasteners are used in motorsports and one of the most popular used for securing body panels and interiors are called, “Quarter-Turn Fasteners,” also known by the brand name “Dzus.”

With literally hundreds of quarter-turn fastener types, mounting configurations, size and thickness options, finding the right combination for your application can be extremely frustrating. Additionally, if the fasteners are not used or installed correctly, they are easily lost and in some cases, cause thousands of dollars in damage to body panels and paint.

To clear up some of the confusing regarding quarter-turn / dzus fasteners, we have put together a series of in-depth videos that will make it easy to select, install and maintain the correct fasteners for your application.

Our second video on the subject takes a look at how to pair fasteners and springs by depth/length and also provides some additional information about their use.

The next quarter-turn fastener video will explore Dzus Fastener installation, the tools used, spring adjustments and using solid rivets for self-eject fasteners.
