Magnetic Release Fastening Technology

GHOST™ Fastening Technology is ideal for achieving tight security and sleek aesthetics. This new PEM® capability produces a fully concealed fastener with zero visible evidence of disassembly once engaged.


GHOST™ Fastening Technology At-a-Glance


  • Tool-less assembly and reassembly
  • Near-instant release and disassembly using magnetic tool
  • Non-contact disassembly unlike traditional fastening solutions
  • Ample float accommodates tolerance and assembly imprecisions
  • Ultra-smooth design for sleek aesthetics
  • Concealed nature of the product makes new design avenues possible across a variety of industries and market sectors
  • Can replace many small external screw/nut assemblies

There are two floating pin styles available for the MRFS™ retainer, the MRPS™ smooth floating pin to accommodates variable engagement depth and/or tolerance stack-up and the MRHPS™ grooved floating pin which provides increased performance and decreased deflection under loading.

  • 1 Blind mounting holes may be deeper than minimums except where sheet material is at or near minimum thickness. Fasteners should always be installed so the flange is flush with he surface of the sheet.
