PEM stud.
Designed to be press fitted into the proper sized hole and to swage material between the stud and the hole. You can hit them with a BF hammer or, drill the precison hole, put the stud in loose and use a nut on the stud to honk the sheet metal down into place and get the swaging effect. Then loosen the tightened nut, and add the ground. The US military recommmends 3/4 diameter coppper rods pounded down into the soil for at least 15 feet for a proper ground. |
