PEM® FH, FHS, and FHA series flush-head self-clinching studs and pins install permanently in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020 in (0.51 mm). They feature a flush head that embeds into the sheet during installation, creating high torque-out and pushout resistance. FH-type pins are available unthreaded on special order and are recommended for sheets with hardness up to HRB 80 and HB 150. FHS-type pins suit sheets up to HRB 70 and HB 125. FHA-type pins are intended for softer aluminum sheets up to HRB 50 and HB 82. The pins are installed using a standard press and are available in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel.
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.
