FHS-032-5 is a flush-head self-clinching stud designed for installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020 in / 0.51 mm. It features a #10-32 thread and installs with a head that remains flush with the sheet surface. The stud is recommended for use in materials with a Rockwell B hardness of 70 or less and Brinell hardness of 125 or less. It requires a minimum hole size of 0.250 in and provides a minimum thread engagement length of 0.250 in, with a height above the surface of 0.025 in when installed. Its clinching profile is identifiable by a dimple in the head.
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.
