FH, FHS, and FHA self-clinching pins are flush-head fasteners designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020″ (0.51 mm), with high torque-out and pushout resistance. They install using a standard press, displacing sheet material to form a secure, flush assembly. These pins are available unthreaded on special order and are suitable for applications requiring alignment, positioning, or pivot functions. The series is compatible with sheet hardness up to HRB 80 for FH, HRB 70 for FHS, and HRB 50 for FHA, and Brinell hardness up to HB 150, HB 125, and HB 82 respectively.
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.
