PEM® Heavy Duty Clinch Studs
capabilities and design guide
PEM® heavy duty self-clinching studs are typically used when
highttorque out and pushout and, if necessary, high tensile/shear
strength are required. These studs are easy to install, have a low
installed cost, and have consistent performance characteristics.

Available Features and Benefits
•tHead strength is adequate to develop full thread strength.
•tSpecially heat-treated for greater tensile and shear strength.
•tLarge head diameter reduces compressive stress on panel.
•tCan be used in material as thin as .036” / .91mm.
•tEasy to install. No welding.
•tCan be installed with automated equipment.
•tRoHS compliant materials and finishes.
•tInstalls into panels up to HRB 85 / HB 165.
