What is PEM Insertion?

PEM insertion involves pressing self-clinching fasteners (like nuts, studs, or standoffs) into sheet metal. These fasteners are designed to permanently anchor into the metal by displacing material into specially designed grooves or undercuts in the fastener. This creates a strong mechanical bond without the need for welding or adhesives.

What is Spot Welding?
