TP4™ flush-head pins are self-clinching fasteners for permanent installation into stainless steel sheets as thin as .040"/1mm, suitable for positioning, pivot, and alignment applications. The part TP4-250-12 has a pin diameter of .250" and a length of .750", with a recommended hole size of .272" and a minimum sheet thickness of .040". The pin features a chamfered end for easier hole alignment and installs into stainless steel sheets with a hardness of HRB 92 or HB 202 or less. The clinching profile may vary and installation must follow the "Dos and Don'ts" guidelines on page 27 due to the hardness of stainless steel panels.
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.
FTPS, TP4 Pilot Pins satisfy a wide range of positioning, pivot, and alignment applications. The chamfered end makes mating hole location easy
