The FHS-273-20 is a self-clinching pin from PennEngineering® designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets as thin as 0.020 inches (0.51 mm). This pin features a flush head that allows for a smooth surface finish, making it suitable for applications where aesthetics and space are considerations. The FHS type is specifically recommended for use in sheets with a hardness of HRB 70 or less and HB 125 or less, ensuring compatibility with softer materials. The installation process involves placing the pin in a properly sized hole and using a standard press to embed it securely, providing high torque-out and pushout resistances. This product is ideal for applications requiring reliable fastening in thin sheet 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.
