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. They feature a flush head and install using standard pressing equipment. The FH, FHS, and FHA variants are available in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel, with material-specific hardness compatibility indicated: FH for HRB ≤80 and HB ≤150, FHS for HRB ≤70 and HB ≤125, and FHA for HRB ≤50 and HB ≤82. These pins are unthreaded and intended for alignment, positioning, and pivot applications where a flush, secure mounting is required.
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.
