Types of fasteners
Types TA™/T4™ microPEM® TackPin® fasteners
Enable sheet-to-sheet attachment, replacing costly screw installation in applications where disassembly is not required.
Features:
- Simple, press-in installation for secure attachment
- Proven self-clinching technology resists vibrational loosening
- Replaces micro screws, eliminating installation issues including:
- Cost of locking patch
- Cost of threaded insert or tapped hole
- Cost of driver bits
- Cost of rework due to cross-threading and driver bit cam-out
- Top sheet can be any material
- Can be installed automatically
- Twists out (unscrew) if removal is necessary. Can be reinstalled one time using a thread locking adhesive.
Type MPP™ microPEM® pins
PEM® Type MPP, self-clinching microPEM® pins are ideal for today’s compact electronic assemblies. Simply pressed into a properly sized mounting hole, these micro pins clinch permanently into place. They can be installed into a variety of sheet materials up to HRB 92 / HB 195 in hardness and they offer excellent corrosion resistance.
Features:
- Satisfy demanding micro positioning and alignment applications
- Head mounts flush into panels as thin as 0,5mm / .02
- Chamfered end makes mating hole alignment easy
- Can be installed into stainless steel sheets
- Can be installed automatically
- Excellent corrosion resistance
Type MSO4™ microPEM® self-clinching standoffs
Designed for mounting and/or spacing in extremely limited space applications.
Features:
- Designed for mounting and/or spacing in extremely limited space applications
- Can be installed into stainless steel sheets
- Have stronger threads than weld standoffs because they are made from heat-treated 400 Series Stainless Steel
- Can be installed automatically
Types TKA™/TK4™ microPEM® TackSert® pins
Designed with diagonal knurl to hold a top panel to a bottom panel or chassis by broaching into the bottom panel/chassis. Type TKA pins are suitable for broaching into plastic applications, and Type TK4 pins are suitable for broaching into castings and brittle materials.
Features:
- Secure panels to common cast materials such as magnesium and aluminum. Also appropriate for attaching panels to plastics such as ABS and to P.C. Boards.
- Simple, press-in installation. Does not require heat or ultrasonics.
- Alternative to micro screws, eliminating the need to tap or use threaded inserts
- Top sheet can be any material
- Low-profile head
- Eliminates the following:
- Cost of screw
- Cost of patch to prevent loosening
- Cost of threaded insert or tapped hole
- Cost of driver bits
- Cost of rework due to cross-threading and driver bit cam-out
- Can be installed automatically
Type SMTSO™ microPEM® surface mount fasteners
These fasteners for compact electronic assemblies attach to P.C. Boards for nut/standoff applications. These fasteners mount on P.C. Boards in the same manner and at the same time as other surface mount components prior to the automated reflow solder process.
Features:
- Hex shaped barrel provides optimal size/performance
- Provided on tape and reel
- Reduces board handling
- Can be installed automatically
Type TS4™ microPEM® TackScrew™ fasteners
Enable cost effective sheet-to-sheet attachment by simply pressing into place. Can be removed by simply unscrewing, similar to other threaded fasteners.
Features:
- Simple, press-in installation for secure attachment
- Proven self-clinching technology resists vibrational loosening
- Replaces micro screws, eliminating installation issues including:
- Cost of locking patch
- Cost of threaded insert or tapped hole
- Cost of driver bits
- Cost of rework due to cross-threading and driver bit “cam-out”
- Top sheet can be any material
- Can be installed automatically
- Twists out (unscrew) if removal is necessary. Can be reinstalled one time using a thread locking adhesive.
