Captive Fasteners Solve Attachment Problems

Oct. 1, 2002

A line of PEM threaded-access hardware fasteners is designed to attach metal panels or other thin-material components in an assembly where subsequent access will be necessary. Their captive-screw design keeps hardware to a minimum and eliminates risks associated with loose parts. Features include self-clinching panel fasteners with a low-profile design that hugs front panels and has a large knurl for ease of use; self-clinching panel fasteners with universal (slot/Phillips) drive; tool- or hand-actuated self-clinching panel fasteners in steel or stainless steel to resist corrosion; and stainless steel self-clinching panel fasteners that meet UL 1950 “service access area” requirements. All threaded access hardware is available in a range of unified and metric thread sizes and in assorted screw lengths. PEM FASTENING SYSTEMS, Danboro, PA. (800) 237-4736 or (215) 766-8853.
