FHA-103-5 is a flush-head self-clinching pin designed for installation in aluminum sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 50 or less and a Brinell hardness of 82 or less. It has a pin diameter of 0.103 inch and a length of 5/16 inch (0.312 inch), suitable for sheet thicknesses of at least 0.040 inch. The pin installs flush with the sheet surface and requires a minimum hole diameter of 0.118 inch with a centerline-to-edge distance of at least 0.085 inch. The pin is available in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel, and is recommended for use in softer aluminum sheets as specified.
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.
