FHA-032-5 is a flush-head self-clinching stud designed for installation in aluminum sheets with a hardness of HRB 50 or less and HB 82 or less. It features a #10-32 thread and is recommended for sheet thicknesses of 0.040 inch and greater. The stud installs permanently by pressing into a properly sized hole, creating a flush assembly with high torque-out and pushout resistance. Its clinching profile and dimensions are consistent with the FHA series, which has a minimum hole size of 0.189 inch, a maximum hole size of 0.256 inch, and a minimum centerline-to-edge distance of 0.210 inch. Material options for the FHA series include 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.
