          Low-Displacement Head Studs – Types LFHL.png
          Low-Displacement Head Studs – Types LFHL-2.png
          LFHL-M2.5-6ZI

          Self-clinching studs are installed by placing them in properly sized holes in the sheets and squeezing into place with any standard press. The squeezing action embeds the head of the stud into the sheet. The metal displaced by the head flows smoothly and evenly around the ribs and into the annular groove – creating a flushhead assembly and securely locking the stud into the sheet with high torque-out and pushout resistances.

          Low-Displacement Head Studs – Types LFHL, LFHLS

          LFHL (flush low-displacement head) Studs install closer to the edge of a sheet than Types LFH/LFHS studs without causing that edge to bulge.- Installs closer to the edge of a sheet than Type LFH/LFHS studs without causing that edge to bulge.
          Flush-head for sheet thickness .040” and greater.
          Type LFHL is recommended for use in steel or aluminum sheets HRB (Rockwell “B” Scale) 80 or less and HB (Hardness Brinell) 150 or less.
          Type LFHLS is recommended for use in steel or aluminum sheets HRB (Rockwell “B” Scale) 70 or less and HB (Hardness Brinell) 125 or less.

          Installation:
          Must always be carried out using a squeeze action-nevr a shock loadPunch a hole in the metal sheet to the size recommended in our technical data tableDe-burring of the hole is not recommended.Apply pressure to the head of the fastener sufficient to totally embed the clinching ring aroundthe entire circumference and bring body in contact with the sheet.Insert fixing screw or bolt from side opposite to the fastener body.
