PEM® CAPTIVE
PANEL SCREWS
PEM® access hardware for enclosures
where the screw must remain with the
door or panel.
Bulletin PF-617
Rev 1217

PF-2 PennEngineering • www.pemnet.com
PEM® brand captive panel screws are designed to help keep parts to a minimum and eliminate risks associated with loose
hardware that could fall out and damage internal components. These panel fastener assemblies are ideal to attach metal
panels or other thin material components in applications where subsequent access will be necessary.

PEM® PF11™/PF12™ CAPTIVE PANEL SCREWS
PEM® PF11/PF12 panel fasteners provide design flexibility by oering three styles of installation types, each having the same profile
or look above the sheet or panel into which it is installed. The various mounting types include self-clinching, flare-mounted, and
floating styles. Each oers a distinct advantage depending on your application. The standard selection of knobs include knurled
or smooth metal caps and plastic PEM C.A.P.S.® (colored access panel screws).
• Installs flush on back side of panel.
• Available in three screw
lengths.
Self-clinching Flare-mounted, Floating
• Compensates for mating hole misalignment.
• Installs into any panel hardness.
Key features include:
1) Universal Phillips/slot drive (except for plastic cap).
2) Shoulder on retainer to provide positive stop during installation.
3) Anti cross-threading feature (designated with an “M” in the
part number). Eases assembly, aligns components, improves
assembly line productivity, prevents jamming, and slides
through clogged internal threads.
Self-clinching Flare-mounted Floating
Black Metal Cap
DuraBlack™ finish is scratch resistant.
Finish is on both metal cap and screw.
(finish code “BL”)
Metal Cap Un-knurled
All metal cap available
without knurls.
Plastic Cap
Available with custom
color plastic cap.

INSTALLS INTO
STAINLESS STEEL
A NOTE ABOUT FASTENERS FOR STAINLESS STEEL PANELS
In order for self-clinching fasteners to work properly, the fastener must be harder than the sheet into which it is being installed. In the case of stainless steel panels,
fasteners made from 300 Series Stainless Steel do not meet this hardness criteria. It is for this reason that 400 series fasteners are oered (PFC4). However, while
these 400 Series fasteners install and perform well in 300 Series stainless sheets they should not be used if the end product:
• Will be exposed to any appreciable corrosive presence.
• Requires non-magnetic fasteners.
• Will be exposed to any temperatures above 300˚F (149˚C)
If any of the these are issues, please contact techsupport@pemnet.com for other options.

Class 3A/4h, per ANSI B1.1, Section 8, Table 3A and ANSI B1.13M, Section 8, Paragraph 8.2.
(2) See PEM Technical Support section of our website (www.pemnet.com) for related plating standards and specifications.
(3) HRB - Hardness Rockwell “B” Scale. HB - Hardness Brinell.
To select proper length code of nut/standoff:
1) Determine “G”, the distance from the top surface of the heat sink to
the top of the P.C. Board.
2) Find the combination of Screw (HSCB) and Nut (HSR) whose sum of
Screw Factor (SF) plus Nut Factor (NF) are closest to G.
3) Find D = G – SF – NF. The D value must be a negative number
between zero and 1mm or 1/32” (1 dash length of HSR nut).
4) The actual working load is equal to the Spring (HSL) Working Load
+ (D x spring rate k). Lower D value results in lower force.
The new HSCB™ engineered mounting system provides secure attachment of a heat sink to the circuit board while providing firm
contact to the chip component allowing optimum heat dissipation. The three-piece fastening system, sold individually, includes the
screw, spring and receptacle nut. The clamp load created is determined
by the spring rate and the amount of deflection that is designed into
the joint of the hardware. The system also allows for slight expansion
and contraction of the joint components without stress to the delicate
circuitry. The unique “click” feature lets the user know when the
fastener is completely installed.

HSL™ SPRINGS
HSL springs are engineered to provide a reliable and repeatable spring rate when
assembled with mating PEM hardware. The spring rate is critical to the successful
assembly of your heat sink. Clamp load will be determined by the spring rate and
deflection that is designed into the joint.

1. Prepare properly sized mounting hole in sheet. Do not perform any
secondary operations such as deburring. If the hole is punched, be
sure to install fastener into punched side of hole.
2. Assemble spring on screw by rotating spring counter clockwise

3. Position hole in workpiece over retractable anvil pin.
4. With installation punch and anvil surfaces parallel, apply squeezing
force on top of the screw head and the underside of the sheet

2. Place the head of the screw into the recess of the installation anvil
and position assembly into recessed magnetic punch.
3. Place the spring over the shoulder of the screw, maintaining concentricity.
4. Position the heat sink mounting hole over the screw.
5. Bring the heat sink down over the screw and onto the shoulder of the screw.
6. With installation punch and anvil surfaces parallel, apply a squeezing force
to the heat sink and the head of the screw. The squeezing action forces the
displacer of the screw into the heat sink, causing it to reduce the mounting
hole diameter and captivate the screw and spring.

FINAL ASSEMBLY
Once the screw and spring are captivated, assemble the heat sink to the circuit board by tightening the screw into the
receptacle nut or stando until the audible “click” is heard. The screw will continue to rotate, but will no longer be engaged
in the threads or continue to actively tighten.

CAPTIVE PANEL SCREW CAPABILITIES
MOST COMMONLY USED AND RECOMMENDED CAPTIVE MATING HARDWARE
FOR USE WITH CAPTIVE PANEL SCREWS
For the best mating hardware for your application please contact our Tech Support line or your local representative.
SELF-CLINCHING NUTS MATED WITH CAPTIVE PANEL SCREW
(See PEM® Bulletin CL)
• S/CLS/SS/CLSS provide load-bearing threads in thin sheets with high pushout and torque-out resistance.
• SP nuts provide load-bearing threads in stainless steel sheets with a hardness of HRB 90 (Rockwell “B”
scale) / HB 192 (Hardness Brinell) or less.
• CLA aluminum nuts are recommended for aluminum sheets with a hardness of HRB 50 (Rockwell “B”
scale) / HB 89 (Hardness Brinell) or less.
• SMPS nuts are for installation into ultra-thin sheets and can be mounted closer to the edge of a sheet than
other self-clinching nuts.
• SL nuts have a unique TRI-DENT® locking feature which meets demanding locking performance requirements.
AS/AC/A4 FLOATING NUTS MATED WITH CAPTIVE PANEL SCREW
(See PEM® Bulletin ALA)
• AS (carbon steel) and AC (300 series stainless steel) floating nuts install into sheets with hardness up to HRB
70 / HB 125 on the Rockwell “B” scale.
• A4 (400 series stainless steel) floating nuts install into sheets with hardness up to HRB 88 / HB 183 on the
Rockwell “B” scale.
• Thread locking versions also available.
B/BS BLIND NUTS MATED WITH CAPTIVE PANEL SCREW
(See PEM® Bulletin B)
• B/BS nuts are used in applications requiring closed thread ends.
• Provides barrier to protect threads against foreign matter.
• Protects internal components from intrusion of screws.
F FLUSH NUTS MATED WITH CAPTIVE PANEL SCREW
(See PEM® Bulletin F)
• Designed to be completely flush in sheets as thin as .060”/1.5mm.
• Ideal for applications where a thin sheet requires load-bearing threads but still must remain smooth, with no
protrusions on either surface.
