Self-Clinching Stud FHP-832-16 from PennEngineering® is designed for permanent installation in stainless steel sheets with a hardness of HRB 90 or HB 192 or less. This stud type features high corrosion resistance, making it suitable for applications in medical devices, food processing, and outdoor equipment. The FHP series allows for strong load-bearing threads in sheets as thin as 0.040 inches. The installation process involves placing the stud in a properly sized hole and applying a squeezing force, which embeds the head into the sheet, ensuring a flush finish and secure locking. Custom sizes are available upon request, and detailed installation guidelines are provided to ensure optimal performance.
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
