CFHC-632-6 concealed-head self-clinching studs install permanently in steel or aluminum sheets as thin as 0.062 in. (1.6 mm) to provide reusable #6-32 threads while leaving the opposite sheet surface smooth. They require a blind hole of 0.162 in. diameter and minimum depth of 0.093 in., and are installed using a PEMSERTER® press or equivalent. The stud is made of stainless steel and features a passivated finish, suitable for sheet hardness up to HRB 70 / HB 125. Installation tooling includes HAEGER® anvil H-103-6L and punch H-108-0020L.
These studs ensure permanent mounting in metal sheets as thin as .062 in.
The fastener head is locked securely in a blind, milled hole and is able to handle substantial loads. The concealed-head feature allows the side of the sheet opposite installation to remain smooth.
Sheet preparation only requires a milled blind hole to the recommended minimum depth. Center-cutting end mills for hole preparation are available from PennEngineering. Installation of the concealed-head studs and standoffs is simple using a hollow anvil and solid punch. Place the head of the fastener in the hole and insert using any standard press. Displaced sheet metal flows smoothly around the head into the undercut.
