Locknuts’ modified threads enable easier tightening
The PEM S-RT self-clinching, free-running locknuts feature a modified thread angle, which allows mating screws to spin freely until clamp load is induced during the screw-tightening process. The applied clamp load engages the locknuts’ vibration-resistant locking feature, which secures the screw in place. PEM S-RT locknuts install into aluminum or steel sheets as thin as 0.030 in. and become permanent parts of an assembly.

Prevent mating screws from loosening
PemHex self-clinching prevailing torque locknuts have a blue nylon hexagonal insert designed to prevent mating screws from loosening. The reusable locking element provides the necessary torque resistance to securely grip mating screws and allow for their repeated installation and removal over time. These PL steel and PLC stainless steel locknuts install permanently in thin steel or aluminum sheets.

Studs enable close-to-edge installation
FHL and FHLS self-clinching flush-head studs from PennEngineering feature a low-displacement head design that enables close-to-edge installation of the fasteners in thin metals sheets. Because the studs install permanently, they will never loosen or fall out, and with the head installed flush in the sheet, the studs will not protrude or otherwise interfere with assemblies.
