PennEngineering® PEM® GHOST™ Fastening Technology

Description
GHOST™ Fastening Technology is ideal for achieving tight security and sleek aesthetics. This new PEM® capability produces a fully concealed fastener with zero visible evidence of position or disassembly method once engaged. GHOST™ Fastening Technology At-a-Glance Near-instant release and disassembly using magnetic tool Ample float accommodates tolerance and assembly imprecisions Ultra-smooth design for sleek aesthetics Concealed product makes new design avenues possible across a variety of industries and market sectors Can replace many types of small external screw/nut assemblies There are two floating pin styles available for the MRFS™ retainer, the MRPS™ smooth floating pin which accommodates variable engagement depth and/or tolerance stack-up and the MRHPS™ grooved floating pin which provides greater performance and decreased deflection under loading. How the Technology Works PEM® GHOST™ Fastening Technology utilizes a fully concealed, pinch-lock mechanism to create a secure lock with zero visibility once engaged. Using a magnetic release tool on the concealed fastener actuates the internal components, unlocking the pinch-lock grip and instantly releasing the pin from the fastener.

GHOST™ Fastening Technology is ideal for achieving tight security and sleek
aesthetics. This new PEM® capability produces a fully concealed fastener with zero
visible evidence of position or disassembly method once engaged.

GHOST™ Fastening Technology At-a-Glance

  • Near-instant release and disassembly using magnetic tool
  • Ample float accommodates tolerance and assembly imprecisions
  • Ultra-smooth design for sleek aesthetics
  • Concealed product makes new design avenues possible across a variety of industries and market sectors
  • Can replace many types of small external screw/nut assemblies

There are two floating pin styles available for the MRFS™ retainer, the MRPS™ smooth
floating pin which accommodates variable engagement depth and/or tolerance
stack-up and the MRHPS™ grooved floating pin which provides greater performance
and decreased deflection under loading.

How the Technology Works

PEM® GHOST™ Fastening Technology utilizes a fully concealed, pinch-lock mechanism to create a secure lock with zero visibility once engaged.

Using a magnetic release tool on the concealed fastener actuates the internal components, unlocking the pinch-lock grip and instantly releasing the pin from the fastener.
