Flanging is the process of forming tubular functional fasteners, such as plain bearing bushes, to create a circumferential reinforcement or contour.

The protrusion of the functional fastener is bent parallel to the component surface after the fastener has been inserted into the pre-punched pilot hole. A subsequent fit is often recalibrated in the inserted fastener.

The flanging of fasteners establishes centering, passages through hollow spaces, ducts and bearings.
