PEM® FH4 self-clinching studs are hardened stainless steel fasteners designed for installation into stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.8 mm, providing externally threaded attachment points with corrosion resistance matching 300 series stainless steel. They are intended for use in sheets with a hardness of HRB 90 or less. Installation ensures a flush, smooth reverse side and high torque-out and pushout resistance. The FH4 series is suitable for applications requiring corrosion resistance, such as medical, food processing, and outdoor equipment.
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.
FH4 & FHP (flush-head) Studs for Stainless Steel are designed to provide strong threads in stainless steel sheets as thin as 1.00 mm . Type FHP studs have high corrosion resistance. Both types are designed for use in stainless steel sheets with a hardness of 92 or less on the Rockwell “B” scale
