PEM® FH, FHS, and FHA flush-head self-clinching studs and pins are designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020 inch (0.51 mm). They install by pressing into a properly sized hole, causing sheet material to flow around the annular groove and secured head, creating high torque-out and pushout resistance. FH studs are recommended for sheets with Rockwell B hardness (HRB) of 80 or less and Brinell hardness (HB) of 150 or less. FHS studs are suitable for sheets with HRB of 70 or less and HB of 125 or less. FHA studs are recommended for aluminum sheets with HRB of 50 or less and HB of 82 or less. Unthreaded versions are available on special order. The head profile is flush with the sheet surface after installation.
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.
