FHA-032-14 is a flush-head self-clinching stud designed for installation in aluminum sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 50 or less and a Brinell hardness of 82 or less. It features a #10-32 thread, a nominal length of 0.189 inches, and is compatible with sheet thicknesses of at least 0.040 inches. The stud installs permanently in metal sheets using a standard press, creating a flush assembly with high torque-out and pushout resistance. Its head profile is optimized for aluminum substrates and requires a minimum hole size of 0.185 inches and a minimum centerline-to-edge distance of 0.210 inches.
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.
