PEM miniature fasteners provide immediate visual indication when proper installation has accomplished.
A strong, knurled collar, which is completely embedded in the sheet. The spin resistance of the knurl greatly exceeds the torque that can be exerted by the self-locking feature.
When this collar is embedded in the sheet, the undercut cavity beneath the collar is filled with displaced sheet material thereby developing pushout resistance.

A dry-film lubricant applied to these fasteners provides the smooth, non-galling prevailing torque performance necessary for reliable locking and for reusability. In use with PEM self-locking fasteners should be Class 3A/ long enough so that at least two threads project through the PEM fasteners when tightened.

(1) The values above are representative of pushout and torque-out resistance between the shank of the fastener and the sheet. The installation, pushout and torque-out values reported are averages when all installation specifications and procedures are followed. Variations in mounting hole size, sheet material and installation procedure will affect this data. These torques will ensure that induced preload will not exceed shear strength of knurled collar. Performance testing of this product in your application is recommended. We will be happy to provide samples for this purpose. (2) These torques consider nut strength only. User must consider screw strength also. When type U/UL is installed in sheets thicker than .025 / 0.64 mm, tightening torque must be controlled so that induced preload does not exceed these values. (3) The maximum locking torque and the minimum breakaway will fall within these values for five cycles when tested in accordance with the locking torque test procedure specified in NASM25027.

INSTALLATION
PUNCH
PEM miniature fasteners must be installed by a force applied through parallel surfaces. Since force must not be applied to the barrel, a cavity must be used in
either the punch or anvil so that the installation force is applied to the knurled collar. D dimensions for the punch or anvil cavity are given in the tables on page FE-3.
2. Insert fastener into the anvil hole and place the mounting hole over the 3. With punch and anvil surfaces parallel, apply squeezing force until
knurled collar is flush with top of the sheet for sheets .060 / 1.5 mm thick and up, or until shank is flush with the bottom of the sheet for sheets .040 / 1 mm to .060 / 1.5 mm thick for type FE/FEO.
In applications for sheet thicknesses between the two ranges (see Sheet Thickness on page FE-3) use the fastener with the larger A dimension. For example, if you want a #4-40 thread and your sheet thickness is between .045 / 1.14 mm and .059 / 1.49 mm, you should use type FE or FEX. This is not recommended installation practice, but in this case if it is necessary, you should install the fastener so that the bottom of the shank is flush with the underside of the sheet (instead of having the top of the knurled collar flush with the top of the sheet). When this method is used, care must be taken to protect the fastener against crushing which would damage the threads. This method will also result in reduced pushout and torque-out values.
