PEM panel access fasteners
PEM panel fasteners eliminate loose hardware on access or inspection panels, machine guards or any other situation where unattached fasteners could become lost, drop into machinery or be just plain inconvenient.
PEM panel fasteners are a quick and effective way of attaching a threaded screw to any sheet material to create a captive fastener. Available as self clinching, floating or snap in styles; and suitable for installation into aluminium steel, stainless steel or most other sheet materials there is a fastener suitable for most applications.
Another feature offered only on PEM panel fasteners is the MAThread anti cross thread feature. By using threads produced using MAThread technology PEM panel fasteners will realign with the mating thread making cross threading almost impossible. MAThread is available at no extra cost only on PEM panel fasteners
PF11, PF12, and PF11PM are completely pre-assembled spring loaded panel fasteners with a slot and/or phillips drive. Both have thread sizes #4 to 1/4" and M3 to M6.
Types PF11MF,PF12MF, and PF11PM F install into any panel hardness. They are appropriate for close centerline-to-edge applications and can be installed on painted surfaces.
Types PF11MW, PF12MW, and PF11PM W install into any panel hardness. They compensate for up to .060"/1.52mm mating thread misalignment and are appropriate for close centerline-to-edge applications. They can also be installed on painted surfaces.
Completely pre-assembled spring- loaded panel fasteners. Thread sizes #4 to 1/4" and M3 to M6.
Type PF50 with large head and Phillips recess for tool or finger operation. Available with six-lobe recess and meets UL 508 operator access area requirements. Type PF60 available with smooth cap for limited access. Also available in black.
A small, compact and low profile design for use in limited access areas. PF7M comes with Matt Thread anti-cross feature and a Philips recess for tool or hand operation.
PEM® SMTPFLSM® Reelfast® panel fasteners come pre-assembled and supplied on tape and reel. This means that the panel fastener can be fitted in one operation with no offline secondary operations making it the fastest way to assemble panel fasteners to a PCB.
Completely pre-assembled spring-loaded panel fasteners. PFC2 parts are made from 300 grade stainless steel, whilst PFS2 panel; fasteners are predominantly made from Heat treated carbon steel. Thread sizes 4-40 to 1/4"--20 and M3 to M6.
PEM® PFC4™ self-clinching captive panel screws from PennEngineering® install permanently into stainless steel enclosures to enable easy access whenever necessary and eliminate risks associated with loose screws. The captivated screw remains reliably in place where designed in a door or panel and will not loosen, fall out, or damage internal components. Meets UL 1950 " service area access" requirements. Assorted screw lengths for most applications, for use in sheets of HRB 88 or less.
These low cost panel fasteners have a small, compact design for limited space applications. Thread sizes #4 & 6 and M3 to M4.
Panel fasteners with spring-loaded captive screws for mounting into P.C boards. Thread sizes #4, #6, and M3.
Captive screws with self-clinching retainers can be flush mounted into sheets as thin as .125" / 3.2 mm. Thread sizes #4 to #10 and M3 to M5.
Used as a retractable drawer-guide stop, indexing pins and latch detents. Can be locked in retracted position. Plunger diameter .250" /6.4 mm.
Type SCB® Spinning Clinch Bolt is a one piece fastener that installs by simply pressing it into a properly sized hole. The controlled clinching action permanently captivates the screw in the panel yet still leaves it to spin freely in the sheet. This allows quick attachment of mating hardware.
SCN™ Spinning Clinch Nuts are permanently captive, free spinning one-piece flanged hex nut that are installed into a round punched holes. SCN clinch nuts are made from hardened carbon steel and allow installation into sheet materials as thin as 1.5mm /.060”: New- Spinning clinch nut is now available with RT™ self locking technology
New PEM® SFN® spinning flare nuts are designed to rotate freely when permanently captivated in thin metal sheets for quick attachment to mating hardware and reduced need for loose fasteners such as flange nuts. When paired with a self-clinching stud or other fixed externally threaded hardware, all loose hardware can be eliminated from an application to help streamline assembly time and decrease production costs.
