Fasteners create strong right-angle attachment points

PennEngineering® offers patented PEM® R’ANGLE® fasteners for thin metal assemblies. They create strong right-angle attachment points to enable tighter design control and reduced hardware counts.

The fasteners can serve as alternatives to conventional bent edge tabs, bent center tabs, bent flanges, angle brackets, and tack welds. Type RAA™ aluminum clinch fasteners and Type RAS™ steel threaded fasteners install in aluminum sheets as thin as 0.040 in. and are available in thread sizes #4-40, #6-32, #8-32, and M3 and M4. Type RAS steel threaded fasteners have the same properties, but also install in steel sheets.
