KFSE-M3-16 is a metric broaching standoff designed for non-plated holes in printed circuit boards, providing a permanent threaded attachment point. It has a thread size of M3 x 0.5, a maximum material thickness of 1.6 mm, and a shank diameter of 4.2 mm. The fastener features axial grooves that create an interference fit by broaching into the board material, preventing rotation. Installation requires a PEMSERTER® tool with anvil part number 975200847300 and punch part number 975200048. It is recommended for use in unplated holes, as plated holes may cause plating damage or trace failure.
No matter how sophisticated or advanced, electronic components must be attached reliably and securely if they are to deliver optimum performance. We offer several fastener products for use with PC boards to satisfy component-to-board, board-to-board, and board-to-chassis attachment needs.
Broaching fasteners can also offer practical alternatives to “loose” hardware. They install permanently in all types of PC boards, as well as aluminum, acrylic, casting and polycarbonate components. A broaching fastener is a knurled-shank fastening device that can be pressed into a hole to provide a strong threaded or unthreaded attachment point in non-metal materials. Specially formed axial grooves around the shank of the fastener “broach” or cut into the material, creating a firm, interference-type fit resistant to rotation.
