FHS™ self-clinching studs are flush-head threaded studs designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020" / 0.51 mm, with high torque-out and pushout resistance. They are recommended for sheets with a Rockwell B hardness (HRB) of 70 or less and a Brinell hardness (HB) of 125 or less. The stud installs using a standard press, with the head embedding into the sheet to form a flush, locked assembly. The series supports stainless steel, steel, and aluminum materials.
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.
