Info
Self-Clinching Flush Head Pins provide a strong captivated pilot pin or pivot point in thin panels. Utilising a special proven castellated clinch feature, this fastener has excellent push-out characteristics as well as good resistance to side loadings, whilst providing a flush finish on the underside of the panel, meaning that minimal surface finishing is required after installation. Like all self clinching fasteners they are installed using a parallel squeezing action, so require access to both sides of the panel.   Flush Head Pins are available in a range of diameters and lengths, manufactured from electro zinc plated through- hardened steel, 300 series stainless steel, aluminium and are suitable for installation in ductile panels with a recommended maximum hardness of 80 HRB for steel parts, 70 HRB for 300 series stainless steel parts and 50 HRB for aluminium parts.
