Also known as pilot pins, use these pins to position, pivot, and align components. To install, punch or drill a hole in sheet metal, then use a punch and anvil or arbor press to clinch the head to the metal.

Pins are passivated for added protection against corrosion and oxidation. The ends are chamfered for easy insertion.

PEM® TPS pins work on steel or aluminum sheets. Made of 18-8 stainless steel, they offer a balance of strength and corrosion resistance and may be mildly magnetic.

PEM® TP4 pins work on stainless steel sheets. Made of 400 series stainless steel, they resist wear and abrasion, but are not as corrosion resistant as 18-8 stainless steel pins. Pins may be mildly magnetic.

PEM® MPP pins work with most materials. Made of A286 stainless steel, they're our strongest captive pins, with corrosion resistance comparable to 18-8 stainless steel pins. They are nonmagnetic.
