FHS-832-8 is a flush-head self-clinching stud designed for installation in steel or aluminum sheets with a hardness of HRB 70 or less and HB 125 or less. It features a #8-32 thread and is installed in sheets as thin as 0.020 in (0.51 mm). The stud head projects above the sheet surface by 0.025 in (0.64 mm) after installation, and the minimum hole size in the panel is 0.234 in with a maximum centerline-to-edge distance of 0.281 in. The stud is manufactured from steel or stainless steel and is installed via standard pressing.
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.
