Datasheet Summary
Powered by GS/AI

The PF32 series are low-profile, spring-loaded captive panel screws with a large slotted head for tool or finger operation, designed for use in thin sheet materials such as aluminum and cold-rolled steel. The part is available in metric thread sizes including M5, with installation force of 823 N in aluminum and 22.2 kN in cold-rolled steel, and a retainer pushout force of 823 N in aluminum and 1334 N in cold-rolled steel. The fastener accommodates sheet thicknesses up to 4.75 mm and requires a torque of 15.6 N·m for M5 thread. Installation force and performance are dependent on hole size, material hardness, and proper seating during installation. The product is marked with the PEM® dot pattern identifier.
