Installation and Tooling Selection
The characteristic design of this series will retain the fastener in the panel until time of assembly. Knurls under the
head of the body of these internally threaded fasteners, grip the cover sheet and act as an anti-rotation feature.
Panel Preparation
Requires the following:
1.A two diameter hole through the panel.
2.A drill-counterbore combination or singly, or a step drill to standard diameters. See table below.
3.Access to both sides of the panel.
4.Residual core and bondline material must be removed to allow the sleeve to seat on the bottom skin.

Panel cover sheets up to .032″ will dimple automatically to obtain a flush head condition. Thicker sheets may either
require the use of the non-flush head style fastener, or if flushness is required, predimpling or spotfacing is common
practice in the industry.
Fastener Installation
The most commonly used method, and that which is recommended, is the use of ram type equipment, such as an arbor press
or hydraulic press.
- Position fastener in prepared hole.
- Select tools from Installation Tool Chart (Opposite).
- Position panel over alignment tool with the guide anvil projecting through the pilot See figure 3.
- Position fastener in prepared hole and apply pressure with the pressing anvil until the fastener head becomes
flush with the top skin. See figure 4. - Replace alignment tool with flaring anvil and again apply pressure with pressing anvil until flaring anvil becomes
flush with the bottom skin. See figure 5.
- Release pressure and fastener is now completely Since the head diameter of the fastener has the greatest area of
contact, it may cause a slight spring back condition. However, when the component is bolted to the panel, the
fastener will again become flush.
One time setting of insert is critical to a good installation. Do not ‘bump’ to set flush. Spring back is inherent in
the panel and multiple resets of the insert results in a loose body. If within .015 or flush pull the head to flush by
attatching the component part.
