The 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. These flush-head pins feature a compact design that allows installation near panel edges and are available in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel materials. They are installed using standard pressing equipment, with the head embedding into the sheet and the displaced material securing the pin. The series is compatible with materials having hardness up to HRB 80 and HB 150 for FH type, HRB 70 and HB 125 for FHS type, and HRB 50 and HB 82 for FHA type. 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.
