The FHP-032-16 is a flush-head self-clinching stud for stainless steel sheets, designed for permanent installation into sheets as thin as .040"/1 mm. It features a .190-32 thread and a 16-length code, corresponding to an unthreaded length of 1.00 inch. Type FHP studs provide high corrosion resistance and are suitable for medical, food service, and marine applications. These studs are intended for use in stainless steel sheets with a hardness of HRB 92 or less. The recommended hole size is .250", with a minimum distance to edge of .281". The clinching profile may vary, and the stud adheres to the PEM® FHP series standards for stainless steel installation.
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 .040” . 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
