Original Press Release:
PEM® KEYHOLE® Self-Clinching Standoff Fasteners Enable Quick Attachment AND REMOVAL OF P.C. BOARDS
PEM® KEYHOLE® self-clinching standoff fasteners are designed to enable P.C. boards or panels to be slipped quickly into place and then removed easily when needed simply by sliding the board sideways and lifting it off. No tools for the easy on/off operations are required.
Installed permanently for secure and reliable attachment, KEYHOLE standoffs promote quicker assembly and disassembly and can reduce the amount and types of loose hardware required in an application.
PEM KEYHOLE stainless steel standoffs (Type SKC(TM)) can further prove useful for spacing or hanging replaceable components. In these applications, several KEYHOLE standoffs typically are specified with one standard PEM threaded standoff, which accepts a screw to secure a board or component against any unwanted movement.
PEM KEYHOLE standoff fasteners are available in a wide range of unified and metric lengths for permanent installation in aluminum or steel sheets as thin as .040"/1mm. The fasteners can be installed easily utilizing a PEMSERTER® press or other standard method.
