Self-clinching captive panel screws provide secure attachment, access without loose parts

PEM® Types PFC2™ (stainless steel) and PFS2™ (steel) self-clinching captive panel screws from PennEngineering® provide permanent attachment for thin-metal assemblies; enable subsequent access to an assembly whenever necessary; and help eliminate issues associated with the loosening of screws in service.

These spring-loaded captive panel screws can be actuated by tool or hand to attach aluminum or steel sheets as thin as 0.060 in. They are available in multiple screw lengths and in thread sizes #4-40 through ¼-20 and M3 through M6. In addition, both types can be supplied with a DuraBlack™ finish.
