PEM or? concealed head captive studs

Apr 01, 2011 4 Replies

Need to purchase some captive studs 6-32, 3/4 to 1 inch and having a hard time finding them. Saw one source but 1000pc minimum (last resort).



Anyone know off hand a distributor that may have them? (online preferably).



Tried Fastenal but they really don't do many small specialty parts.



THANKS.


If you want plain old PEM sheetmetal clinch studs, Mcmaster has them. I order some a couple of months ago. I think they only go up to 1/2" tall though. Minimum order is 25 I think.

Go to Mcmaster-carr.com and do a search on clinch standoffs.

If it matters to anyone, I don't think they're all actual PEM parts, maybe clones. IIRC, we got some that don't have PEM's trademark non-functional groove.

I think I ordered 3 different sizes. One was genuine PEM, the other two were Taiwanese copies, but good in form, fit and function.

Solved the problem -- needed them quick.

SW Anderson -- never even heard of them before, but they had stock.

Thanks.
