Standard Panel hole for 1219-R, 127P, 127H, and 1219-24 |
Gasket or Interposed Sheet The hole should be sufficiently larger than the outer diameter of the stud retainer in order to allow free entry of the retainer |
Oversize Panel Hole For 127P and 127H |
An oversized panel hole allows the stud to float which can compensate for panel-to-support misalignment. Do not use with 1219-R snap ring retainers. | ||

9906-RS HAND TOOL: Spreads the inside diameter of
retainers over stud shanks and then pushes them into stud
undercuts.
9902-1-1 BLOCK: Nests stud heads during installation. (Any flat block may be used for 122J-R ring head studs.) |

Ring Head Stud using a 127P Plastic Half Grommet, 1219-R Snap Ring or 1219-24 Retaining Spring Retainer. |
|
The installation of any of these retainers requires two
tools.
The 9906-RSxxx is used to push the retainer over a Tapered Mandrel (included) and over the cam end of the stud until it reaches the undercut. Once the retainer reaches the undercut, it snaps back to its original size and prevents the stud from coming out of the panel. A Flat Surface Plate is used to support the stud and panel while the retainer is attached. |

| Ring Head Stud using a 127H Half Grommet Retainer and a Dimpled Support |
|
Installation of the 127H Half Grommet Retainer requires one tool.
The 9916-5-1xxx-BB is used to flatten the grommet against the panel while a Flat Surface Plate is used to support the stud and panel. In this case, the 127H Half Grommet Retainer is flattened against the underside of the panel and can cause a gap between the panel containing the stud and the support containing the receptacle. Dimpling the support will allow the panel and support to come into direct contact by allowing the retainer to fit in the dimple. |
The triple-x (xxx) in the tool part number stands for the stud size number: i.e., 3, 4, 5, or 7 (for 65).
1271 Retainer wall thickness is absorbed by gasket, interposed panel, or by dimpled support. |
Underside of panel hole is counter bored to depth equal to 1271 Retainer wall thickness. |
*If application requires, size hole +.005/+.010 larger then Dim. A Note: Dimpled panels require dimpled supports. |

|
To order installation tools as a set use Part Number: 9920-1-xxx-BB |
An installed 1271 or 1276 grommet may be removed by shearing
off its underside flange with a staking tool.
Removal tools are not part of the set and must be ordered separately. |
| Ring Head Stud using a 1271 Full Grommet Retainer |
Installation of a 1271 Full Grommet Retainer is a multi-step
process and requires several different tools.
|
| 1. Using diameter specified in the table, make the hole in the panel for light press fit grommet. I loose fit is needed, size the hole diameter +.005/+.010" |
|
||||||||
| 2. Press grommet/stud assembly into hole | Note: This stud panel hole permits use of S-Spring receptacles without a dimpled stud hole in support. | ||||||||
| 3. Flare grommet using 9906-A-xxx-BB flaring tool while a 9902-1-1xxx-BB is used to support the panel, stud, and grommet. | 4. Flatten grommet using 9916-3-1xxx-BB tool while a 9902-1-1xxx-BB is used to support the panel, stud, and grommet. | ||||||||
