Fastening System Mounts to Rigid Materials

The new PEM® VariMount™ fastening system (Type VM) from PennEngineering® uses self-clinching technology paired with a round steel or stainless steel base plate to offer a clean, ready-made assembly for mounting into any rigid material or panel.
Multiple radial holes in the base plate and a large footprint help ensure effective mounting of the assembly, whether the method is mold-in or laminate with layers, adhesives, standard fasteners, or spot welding. Mounting can be performed either on the front or through the back of a panel.
The assembly’s pre-installed fastener—permanently clinched into the base plate—holds securely in place without the use of unsightly welds. In addition, the radial holes in the base plate for mounting the assembly are sized to accept universally standard diameters of rivets, self-clinching fasteners, and loose hardware such as nuts, bolts, and screws.
