Self-Clinching Pins Type FH, FHS, FHA from PennEngineering¬Æ are designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as .020,Äù (0.51 mm). The pins are installed by placing them in appropriately sized holes and applying pressure with a standard press, which embeds the head into the sheet material. This process creates a flush-head assembly that provides high torque-out and pushout resistance. The specific part number FH-084-4ZI is suitable for applications requiring flush-head pins with robust locking capabilities. These pins are recommended for use in sheets with specific hardness ratings: Type FH for sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less and a Brinell hardness of 150 or less, Type FHS for sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 70 or less and a Brinell hardness of 125 or less, and Type FHA for aluminum sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 50 or less and a Brinell hardness of 82 or less. Custom sizes are available upon request.
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.
