PennEngineering PEM PFC4 captive panel screws enable access to stainless steel enclosures

PEM® PFC4™ self-clinching captive panel screws from PennEngineering® install permanently into stainless steel enclosures to enable access whenever necessary and eliminate risks associated with loose screws. The captivated screw remains reliably in place where designed in a door or panel and will not loosen, fall out, or damage internal components. The spring-loaded fastener assemblies comply with UL 60950 equipment access standards.

The captive panel screws will install in stainless sheets as thin as 0.060 in. with hardness up to HRB 88. A shoulder provides a positive stop during installation, and the fastener ultimately will be flush on the opposite side of the sheet. A fully recessed head in the fastened position allows for tool-only access.
