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 recom- mended, is the use of ram type equipment, such as an arbor press
or hydraulic press.
1 .Position fastener in prepared hole.
2 .Select tools from Installation Tool Chart (Opposite).
3 .With tools in place, apply pressure to head of fastener. Press body of insert into sleeve until head is flush with
panel surface (‘C’ or ‘D’ head style) or until head is down against panel surface (‘F’ head style).
4 .Release pressure and fastener is now completely installed.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 attaching the component part.
