Self-Clinching Pins Type FHS-3-MM-12 from PennEngineering® are designed for permanent installation in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel sheets with a thickness as thin as 0.020 inches (0.51 mm). These pins feature a flush head that allows for a smooth surface finish and are suitable for applications requiring high torque-out and pushout resistance. The FHS type 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 pins in appropriately sized holes and using a standard press to embed them securely into the material. Custom sizes are available upon request.
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.
