1/4-28 Threaded Ground Stud.
(OP)
I need to ground an aluminum box used in an aircraft. The grounding strap has a 1/4-28 nut attached to it. I was going to us a PEM self clinching stud pressed into the housing, but they no longer produce this size. What other method could be used to attach a stud to the outer wall?

However, in this case, the head of the bolt would need to be inside of the enclosure, and I am having trouble convincing (and believing) the bolt won't turn when a grounding strap and nut are attached to the bottom of the bolt.

Look at page 36 of 39. Could you use something equivalent to MIL-T-83454/5, Blind Stud 0.250-28 UNJF-3A?

I may just come up with a better mechanical lock for the bolt head inside the enclosure.
