New self-clinching microPEM® TackPin® (Type T™) fasteners for compact electronic assemblies enable sheet-to-sheet attachment, replacing costly screw installation in applications where disassembly is not required. TackPin fastener use eliminates typical screw-related issues (including tapping, cross-threading, torque control, and vibration backout) and ultimately promotes quick and easy installation with minimal hardware. TackPin fasteners can provide a good alternative to welds or adhesives.Features and BenefitsMicro sized for fastening within very compact designs.Attaches top sheets as thin as 0.2 mm / .008 in.Clinches into base panels as hard as HRB 45 / HB 84.Interference fit minimizes hole tolerance issues.Tapered tip assists location.Low-profile head provides cosmetic benefits.Replaces screws: eliminating costly tapping, cross threading, torque control, vibration backout and installation time.Ideal for today’s compact electronicsLaptopsNotebooks / Ultrabook™ DevicesTablet ComputersCell/Smart PhonesGaming / Hand Held DevicesUltrabook™ is a trademark of Intel Corporation
