Fastening into Lightweight Composite Design
EJOWELD®
For joining different materials and semi-finished products using friction element welding
FLOWpoint DELTA PT®
For direct fastening into carbon-fibre-reinforced plastics without pre-hole
EPPsys TSSD
Especially suitable for honeycomb structures
For design engineers navigating the complexities of modern lightweight construction, EJOT offers an advanced portfolio of Industrial Engineering fasteners. Engineered specifically for fastening into lightweight composite designs, these solutions eliminate the historical compromises associated with mixed-material joining, enabling the seamless integration of carbon-fibre-reinforced plastics (CFRP), thermoplastics, and advanced high-strength steels.
At the forefront of EJOT’s product offering is the EJOWELD® system, which utilises friction element welding to form exceptionally strong multi-material bonds. This technology allows a robot-compatible setting tool to drive a friction element through lightweight cover plates and weld directly to the steel base plate underneath. By exploiting localised friction heat, this alternative to traditional friction stir welding creates robust joints without the need for pre-drilling, cleaning, or surface decoating. The portfolio features specialised components such as the EJOWELD CFF® for ultra-high-strength steel applications and the hollow EJOWELD® REF, engineered for the universal joining of aluminium and fibre-reinforced plastics.
Beyond friction-based systems, EJOT addresses composite-specific challenges with dedicated direct fastening screws. The FLOWpoint DELTA PT® enables process-reliable, self-tapping insertion straight into fibre-reinforced thermoplastics without a pilot hole, mitigating fibre damage and maintaining structural integrity. For sandwich and honeycomb components, the EPPsys TSSD® system provides clean, targeted anchoring that resists pull-out forces.
Key Benefits for Design Engineers:
By implementing EJOT’s specialised fasteners, engineering teams can boldly push the boundaries of lightweight design, achieving superior structural strength, minimised cycle times, and ultimate geometric flexibility in highly demanding automotive and industrial assemblies.

Key Benefits for Design Engineers:
- Elimination of Pre-Treatment: No pre-drilling, punching, or de-coating, dramatically optimising cycle times.
- Structural Integrity: Engineered thread profiles and thermal element welding techniques minimise micro-cracking and stress concentration in composite matrices.
- Corrosion Prevention: Secure material encapsulation prevents galvanic corrosion at the multi-material interface.
