PEM® FH, FHS, and FHA flush-head self-clinching pins are designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020" (0.51 mm). They install with a press, embedding the head into the sheet to create high torque-out and pushout resistance. These pins are available unthreaded on special order and are suitable for applications requiring a flush finish. Material options include aluminum, steel, and stainless steel, with compatibility based on sheet hardness: FH for HRB ≤ 80 and HB ≤ 150, FHS for HRB ≤ 70 and HB ≤ 125, and FHA for aluminum sheets with HRB ≤ 50 and HB ≤ 82.
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.
