PEM® FASTENERS FOR USE WITH PC BOARDS
PROFILED IN FREE PRODUCT BULLETIN

A new 20-page product bulletin
(available online and in print) profiles PEM® surface mount and
broaching fasteners designed specifically for use with PC boards. These various fastener products provide ideal
solutions to satisfy component-to-board, board-to-board, and board-to-chassis
attachment needs.
“Bulletin K” includes a “Quick
Reference Chart” (covering fastener types, mounting methods, and primary uses)
and provides detailed information and specs on fastener materials, finishes,
installation procedures, and performance, among other data.
Profiled product families include ReelFast® surface mount fasteners (threaded
or unthreaded nuts and standoffs, captive panel screws, and R’ANGLE®
right-angle fasteners), broaching
fasteners (internally threaded nuts, threaded or unthreaded standoffs,
threaded studs, panel fastener assemblies, and spring-action SNAP-TOP®
standoffs), broach/flare-mounted
standoffs (offering greater pullout peformance);
and SpotFast® clinch/broach mount fasteners
(for joining metal to PCB/plastic panels).
ReelFast
fasteners mount on PC boards in the same manner and at the same time as other surface mount components prior to the automated reflow
solder process and simply become another board component. Broaching fasteners install into all types of
PC boards and aluminum, acrylic, casting, or polycarbonate components and
create a firm, interference-type fit resistant to rotation. All types of these RoHS-compliant
fasteners eliminate problems associated with loose hardware.
Detailed
specifications (Bulletin K) and free part drawings (PEM CAD Library) for these
RoHS-compliant fasteners can be accessed at www.pemnet.com
