Self-Clinching Threaded Stud FH-M3-12ZC from PennEngineering® is designed for permanent installation in sheets of aluminum, steel, or stainless steel with a minimum thickness of 1.00 mm. This product features a flush-head design that allows for a smooth surface finish and is suitable for applications requiring high torque-out and pushout resistance. The stud is compatible with materials that have a hardness rating of HRB 80 or less and HB 150 or less. It is installed using a standard press, which embeds the head into the sheet, ensuring a secure fit. The FH-M3-12ZC is part of a series that includes options for different material specifications and hardness ratings, making it versatile for various engineering applications.
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.
