FHLS-832-4 is a flush, low-displacement head self-clinching stud designed for installation in steel or aluminum sheets as thin as 0.040" (1 mm). It has an M4" thread size of #8-32, a minimum hole size of 0.178" (4.5 mm), and allows attachment within 0.176" (4.5 mm) of a panel edge. The stud is recommended for materials with a Rockwell B hardness of 70 or less and a Brinell hardness of 125 or less. It installs flush and resists bulging at the sheet edge.
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.
FHL (flush low-displacement head) Studs install closer to the edge of a sheet than PEM Types FH/FHS studs without causing that edge to bulge.
