Compact fasteners add threads to thin sheets
An updated six-page product bulletin profiles the complete line of PEM miniature self-clinching fasteners.
These nonlocking 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.
