FH, FHS, and FHA flush-head self-clinching studs and pins are designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020" (0.51 mm). They feature a flush head that embeds into the sheet during pressing, providing high torque-out and pushout resistance. These types are available unthreaded on special order and are compatible with sheets having a hardness of HRB 80 or less for FH, HRB 70 or less for FHS, and HRB 50 or less for FHA. The head design ensures a secure, flush mounting without protrusion.
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.
