Drawing note

[Rich29662]

Hello,
I am hoping someone can help me with understanding what this drawing note means as I have never used it before. There is a note for a clinch nut being installed into a piece of aluminum sheet metal and the note says Insert From From side.

Thanks in advance for your help.
Richard

Yup, me too. Likely "Insert from Far side" but that's just a guess.

Makes perfect sense.

There is a from side and a to side.

It should be obvious that you need to start at the from side, so the note is unnecessary.

Could be “formed” side.

Still doesn’t make much sense unless drawing mentions some forming tool applied to certain side.
