This unique design allows the threads to self-align and drive easily with reduced effort. This helps speed assembly, reduce or eliminate failures, repairs, scrap, downtime, and warranty service associated with thread damage. This option is available on most types of PEM studs. OPTIONAL POINTED STUD FEATURE A pointed lead-in option for studs allows quick location of mating fastener during assembly to speed assembly and significantly reduces the likelihood of cross threading. lip grooves for snap rings can also be added. This feature can be added to most types of PEM studs. MA is a registered trademark of MA inc. Anti ross- Feature OPTIONAL TREAD MASK PEM Blu-oat thread mask is available for applications where hardware is installed prior to painting. During assembly, the threads of the mating hardware will remove paint, electro deposited automotive under coatings, and weld spatter upon application of torque. PEM studs can be specially ordered with thread mask applied. B suffix will be added to part number to designate Blu-oat thread mask to fastener. AVAILABLE PEM VARIMOUNT FASTENING SYSTEM The PEM VariMount fastening system (see PEM Bulletin VM) utilizes a self-clinching stud paired with a round steel or stainless steel base plate to offer a clean and ready-made assembly for mounting into any rigid material or panel, including composites, plastics, and metals. Multiple radial holes in the base plate and a generous footprint provide effective mounting of the assembly. Mounting can be performed either on the front or through the back of a panel. F-4

A NOTE ABOUT 400 SERIES FASTENERS FOR STAINLESS STEEL PANELS In order for self-clinching fasteners to work properly, the fastener must be harder than the sheet into which it is being installed. In the case of stainless steel panels, fasteners made from 300 Series Stainless Steel do not meet this hardness criteria. It is for this reason that 400 series fasteners are offered (s F4 and TP4). owever, while these 400 Series fasteners install and perform well in 300 Series stainless sheets they should not be used if the end product: Will be exposed to any appreciable corrosive presence. Requires non-magnetic fasteners. Will be exposed to any temperatures above 300 F (149 ) If any of the these are issues, please contact techsupport@pemnet.com for other options such as the FP stud, made from precipitation hardened grade stainless steel which is not subject to these issues.

18 INSTALLATION - F /FS /FA TREADED STUDS 1. Prepare properly sized mounting hole in sheet. Do not perform any secondary operations such as deburring. 2. Insert stud through mounting hole (punch side) of sheet and into anvil hole. 3. With punch and anvil surfaces parallel, apply squeezing force to embed the head of the stud flush in the sheet. In most cases, when using sheets.060 / 1.51 mm and thicker, the anvil requires only a straight thru hole to accommodate the stud (see illustrations below for details). For sheets less than.060 / 1.51 mm, the hole requires a countersink with dimension A at the top to provide for metal flow around the shank of the stud.

19 INSTALLATION - F4 /FP STUDS FOR STAINLESS STEEL SEETS 1. Prepare properly sized mounting hole in sheet. Do not perform any secondary operations such as deburring. 2. Insert stud through mounting hole (punch side) of sheet and into anvil hole. 3. With punch and anvil surfaces parallel, apply squeezing force to embed the head of the stud flush in the sheet. For F4/FP studs, a special anvil with a raised ring is required to create a proper installation. The raised ring acts as a second displacer of the stainless sheet material, thereby ensuring that the annular groove is filled. Please see page 6 for recommended sheet thickness range. The special anvils are available from PEM stock or can be machined from suitable tool steel. A hardness of R 55 / B 547 minimum is required to provide long anvil life. We recommend measuring the P dimension every 5000 installations to ensure that the anvil remains within specification. PEMSERTER Installation Tooling METRI Anvil Dimensions (in.)

26 Published installation forces are for general reference. Actual set-up and confirmation of complete installation should be made by observing proper seating of fastener as described in the installation steps. Other performance values reported are averages when all proper installation parameters and procedures are followed. Variations in mounting hole size, sheet material, and installation procedure may affect performance. Performance testing this product in your application is recommended.
