FH-series self-clinching studs are flush-head fasteners designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020" (0.51 mm). They provide high torque-out and pushout resistance and are compatible with sheet materials up to HRB 80 and HB 150. The stud head installs flush with the sheet surface and is suitable for use in applications requiring reliable mounting in thin panels. All variants share the same installation method using standard press equipment.
PEM® self-clinching studs are installed by placing them in properly sized holes in the sheets and squeezing into place with any standard press. The squeezing action embeds the head of the stud into the sheet. The metal displaced by the head flows smoothly and evenly around the ribs and into the annular groove – creating a flushhead assembly and securely locking the stud into the sheet with high torque-out and pushout resistances.
FH (flush-head) studs are available in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel . They are also available unthreaded on special order.
