Type SKC-F - Allows detachable joining of two sheets
Features and Benefits
Panel to Panel, KEYHOLE® Style – Type SKC-F
PEM® KEYHOLE® sheet joining fasteners are designed so that a PC board or panel can be quickly slipped into place and then removed from an assembly by simply sliding the board sideways and lifting it off. PEM KEYHOLE fasteners can save valuable time and dramatically reduce the amount of loose hardware required. Type SKC-F is designed so that two sheets can be quickly joined flat against each other. Typically, several Type SKC-F fasteners are used with one standard PEM® threaded Type F flush nut which accepts a screw to secure the sheets against any unwanted movement.Type SKC-F - Allows detachable joining of two sheets
- Clinch feature mounts fastener permanently into metal sheet.
- Unique barrel design allows for quick “panel-on-panel” attachment and detachment.
- Head is flush or sub-flush with one side of metal sheet.
- Can be clinched into blind hole where concealed-head is required.
- Makes horizontal or vertical component mounting possible.

PEM Type TA™ Self-clinching microPEM® TackPin®
(3) New self-clinching microPEM® TackPin® (Type T™) fasteners for compact electronic assemblies enable sheet-to-sheet attachment, replacing costly screw installation in applications where disassembly is not required. TackPin fastener use eliminates typical screw-related issues (including tapping, cross-threading, torque control, and vibration backout) and ultimately promotes quick and easy installation with minimal hardware. TackPin fasteners can provide a good alternative to welds or adhesives.Features and Benefits
- Micro sized for fastening within very compact designs.
- Attaches top sheets as thin as 0.2 mm / .008 in.
- Clinches into base panels as hard as HRB 45 / HB 84.
- Interference fit minimizes hole tolerance issues.
- Tapered tip assists location.
- Low-profile head provides cosmetic benefits.
- Replaces screws: eliminating costly tapping, cross threading, torque control, vibration backout and installation time.
