An updated six-page product bulletin profiles the complete line of PEM miniature self-clinching fasteners.

An updated six-page product bulletin profiles the complete line of PEM miniature self-clinching fasteners, which are designed to fit into minimal space and to provide strong, reusable threads in thin aluminium and steel sheets.

Bulletin FE covers specifications, installation procedure, and performance data for each type of PEM self-clinching fastener in the miniature product line.

These non-locking and self-locking fasteners are available in thread sizes ranging from 0-80 through 1/4-28 and M2 through M6 and can be installed permanently in sheets as thin as 0.76mm.

PEM miniature self-clinching fasteners feature a strong, knurled collar, which is completely embedded in the sheet to guarantee against rotation of the fastener upon installation.

A dry-film lubricant applied to these fasteners provides the smooth, non-galling prevailing torque performance necessary for reliable locking and reusability.
