The FHS-106-16 self-clinching pin from PennEngineering® is designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020 inches (0.51 mm). This pin type offers high torque-out and pushout resistances, making it suitable for applications requiring secure fastening. The FHS series is specifically recommended for use in steel or aluminum sheets with a Rockwell hardness of 70 or less and a Brinell hardness of 125 or less. The installation process involves placing the pin in a properly sized hole and using a standard press to embed the head into the sheet, ensuring a flush assembly. Custom sizes are available upon request, allowing for flexibility in various engineering applications.
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.
