FH-series self-clinching pins are designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020 in (0.51 mm), with high torque-out and pushout resistance. The flush-head configuration allows the pin to install flush with the sheet surface. These pins are available in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel and are suitable for sheets with Rockwell B hardness up to HRB 80 and Brinell hardness up to HB 150. Installation is accomplished using a standard press, which embeds the head and deforms the surrounding material to lock the pin securely. Unthreaded variants are available on special order.
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.
