PEM® 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 0.51 mm, with high torque-out and pushout resistance. The studs install by pressing into a properly sized hole, causing the sheet material to flow around the annular groove and secure the fastener flushly. FH types are recommended for sheets with hardness up to HRB 80 and HB 150, FHS for HRB 70 and HB 125, and FHA for aluminum sheets up to HRB 50 and HB 82. These variants are available unthreaded on special order and are compatible with standard press installation methods.
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.
