Floating Panel Fasteners Compensate for Mating Hole Misalignment – Packaging & Interconnects

PEM-FloatingPanelFastenersPEM Hybrid floating panel fastener assemblies can be installed into any thin panel material and readily allow for radial float to compensate for mating hole misalignment up to .060”/1.52 mm. These metal/plastic fasteners are suited where subsequent access may be necessary. Fully captive steel screws keep parts to a minimum and eliminate risks associated with loose hardware that could fall out and damage internal components. Screw thread sizes range from #10-32 and #12-24 and M5 and M6.
