Product Description
The CHC-440-6 is a precision concealed-head self-clinching stud engineered by PennEngineering® (PEM®). Designed to provide strong external threads in thin metal sheets, this specialized fastener mounts securely into a milled blind hole. Because the head remains entirely hidden within the blind cavity, the opposite side of the sheet remains completely smooth and unmarred, ensuring flawless surface aesthetics and preserving exterior styling. Fabricated from high-quality 300 Series Stainless Steel, it delivers long-term corrosion resistance and creates a high-strength, permanent bond that reliably resists pushout and torque-out forces without the need for welding.
Concealed-Head Configuration: Leaves the reverse side of the metal sheet completely flat, closed, and unmarred.
Self-Clinching Design: Integrates permanently into panels using simple press-in action without welding.
Stainless Steel Material: Constructed from 300 Series Stainless Steel for superior durability and corrosion resistance.
High Mechanical Strength: Safely supports attached components under varied operating loads with high torque and pushout limits.
