Experience a secure, low-profile fastening solution with Self Clinching Studs Flush Stainless 8-32 x 1/2. These flush-mount studs are crafted from stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance, delivering a strong threaded connection in thin sheet metal without protruding fasteners. Ideal for maintaining a smooth surface on panels, enclosures, and electronics housings.

Key Features

• Material: Stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance and long service life.
• Type: Self-clinching flush studs designed to install flush with the surface for a clean look.
