TFH non-flush self-clinching studs are designed for installation in sheets as thin as 0.51 mm, with the stud head projecting approximately 0.64 mm above the sheet surface after installation. They are installed using standard presses and provide high torque-out and pushout resistance. TFH studs are suitable for steel or aluminum sheets with a hardness of HRB 80 or less and HB 150 or less. The part is available in metric sizes and is intended for applications where a flush head is not required.
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.
TFH (non-flush) Studs are for sheets as thin as 0.51mm. They may also be used in thicker sheets where flush head studs are not required. TFH studs are installed in the sheets in the same manner as flush-head studs; however, different punches and anvils are required. When installed, the TFH stud will be securely locked into the thin sheet with ample torque-out and pushout resistances. The stud head will not be flush but will project above the sheet surface approximately 0.64mm.
