The microPEM¬Æ TackSert¬Æ Type TK,Ñ¢ Pins, specifically the TKA-10-300 model, are designed for the attachment of thin panels to various materials, including plastics and common casting materials like magnesium die casting (AZ91D). These pins provide a secure alternative to screws, eliminating the need for tapping or threaded inserts. The installation process is straightforward, requiring only a simple press-in method without the need for heat or ultrasonics, making it suitable for automated applications. The TKA-10-300 pins feature a tapered tip that aids in alignment during installation and a low-profile head that minimizes protrusion. They are particularly effective in compact electronic applications and can accommodate a top sheet of any material. The minimum base panel thickness for effective engagement is specified, ensuring proper installation and performance. Overall, these pins offer a reliable fastening solution for engineers looking to streamline assembly processes while maintaining structural integrity.
New microPEM® TackSert™ (Type TK™) pins are designed with a diagnol knurl to hold a top panel to a bottom panel or chassis by broaching into the bottom panel/chassis. Type TKA (aluminum) pins are suitable for broaching into plastic applications, and Type TK4 (400 series stainless steel) pins are suitable for broaching into castings and brittle materials.
• Secure panels to common magnesium die casting materials such as AZ91D. Also appropriate for attaching panels to plastics such as ABS.
• Simple, press-in installation. Does not require heat or ultrasonics.
• Alternative to micro screws, eliminating many of the costs associated with threaded hardware.
• Top sheet can be any material.
• Low profile head.
