PEM® Self Clinching Fasteners
PEM® captive fasteners and captive nuts and studs are designed to help keep parts to a minimum and eliminate risks associated with loose hardware that could fall out and damage internal components. The panel fastener assemblies are ideal to attach metal panels to other thin material components in applications where subsequent access is needed.

Consumer Electronics
See what’s possible with PEM® fastening solutions for consumer electronics. From catalog to custom parts, PEM® fasteners use self-clinching, broaching, flaring, and surface-mount technology for strong, reusable, and permanent threads and mounting points in different ductile/non-ductile materials.
