The FHL/FHLS series are flush, low-displacement head studs designed for installation in steel or aluminum sheets as thin as 1.00 mm, with a smaller head diameter enabling installation closer to sheet edges than standard FH/FHS studs without causing edge bulging. FHLS studs are recommended for use in materials with Rockwell B hardness of 70 or less and Brinell hardness of 125 or less. The FHLS-M5-20 variant has an M5 x 0.8 thread and a length of 20 mm, with a minimum hole size of 5.9 mm and a maximum distance from the edge of 5.6 mm.
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.
