Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs install permanently into metal sheets as thin as 0.63 mm, providing flush, closed-end mounting without access to the back side. The BSO series is designed for use in steel or aluminum sheets with Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less and Brinell hardness of 150 or less. The part is made from hardened stainless steel, compatible with stainless steel sheet clinching when nickel-plated. Minimum hole size is 0.050 inch, minimum distance to edge is 0.31 inch, and threaded barrel length for this variant is 0.562 inch (18 in 32nds). These standoffs feature a blind-threaded design with a closed-end barrel for full surface coverage.
These standoffs, which use the proven self-clinching design, install with a squeeze in properly sized round holes - and become permanently mounted in the thin sheet.
When blind-threaded types are used, outer sheet surfaces are not only flush, but closed as well.
