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.
