SELF-LOCKING FASTENERS

SELF-LOCKING FASTENERS PEM® SELF-CLINCHING PREVAILING TORQUE LOCKNUTS PREVENT MATING HARDWARE FROM LOOSENING PEM® self-clinching prevailing torque locknuts provide ideal solutions to prevent mating hardware from loosening in service due to vibration or other application-related factors. This family of fasteners includes a variety of types and different locking-feature styles to satisfy a wide range of applications. Their use can save time and money compared with alternative chemical locking methods or patches. ABOUT LOCKING THREADS PREVAILING TORQUE – a design feature of the lock nut...

SELF-LOCKING FASTENERS TYPES FE/FEO/UL A strong, knurled collar, which is embedded in the sheet, guarantees against rotation of the fastener in the sheet. The torque-out resistance of the knurl greatly exceeds the torque that can be exerted by the self-locking feature. Tops elliptically squeezed PART NUMBER DESIGNATION Clinching profile may vary.

SELF-LOCKING FASTENERS TYPES LAS/LAC/LA4 These fasteners provide load-bearing threads in thin sheets and permit a minimum of .030”/0.76 mm adjustment for mating hole misalignment. Extra strength and support in assembly is obtained by the threads of the floating nut extending into the retainer shank. Thread locking torque performance is equivalent to applicable NASM25027 specifications. Type LA4 floating fasteners are specifically designed to be installed into stainless steel sheets. To meet national aerospace standards and to obtain testing documentation, product must be ordered to US...

SELF-LOCKING FASTENERS TYPES LK/LKS/LKA The PEM design utilizes two rugged, semicircular flexing jaws instead of several less-supported segments. The greater ruggedness and retention of this PEMFLEX action prevents relaxation and loosening of the fastener in severe service. This design also protects the screw threads. Clearances obtained by only two interruptions of a full circumference, together with the spreading of the jaws by the entering screw, minimize the possibility of thread damage. Hex shoulder of PEMFLEX® locknuts provides increased pull-through performance and a positive stop...

SELF-LOCKING FASTENERS TYPES PL AND PLC The thread locking torque performance of Type PL and PLC PEMHEX® self-clinching fasteners is equivalent to applicable NASM25027 specifications. The strong knurled collar receives the installation force and resists torque. The spin resistance of the knurl greatly exceeds the torque that can be exerted by the self-locking feature.

SELF-LOCKING FASTENERS INSTALLATION TYPE CFN 1. Prepare properly sized mounting hole in sheet. Do not perform any secondary operations such as deburring. 2. Insert fastener into the anvil hole and place the mounting hole over the shank of the fastener (preferably the punch side) as shown in drawing. 3. With installation punch and anvil surfaces parallel, apply squeezing force until the shoulder of the fastener contacts the sheet.
