FH-series self-clinching pins are designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020 in (0.51 mm), with high torque-out and pushout resistance. They install flush using standard press equipment, and are available unthreaded on special order. The FH type is recommended for sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less and Brinell hardness of 150 or less. These pins are manufactured in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel and maintain consistent fit, form, and function despite normal process variations in surface appearance.
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.
