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 steel or aluminum sheets with hardness up to HRB 80 / HB 150. The part BSO-032-20ZI corresponds to a #10-32 thread, 0.625 inch length, with a minimum hole size of 0.050 inch and minimum edge distance of 0.31 inch. The barrel length of 0.625 inch provides sufficient clinching depth for standard sheet thicknesses. These standoffs are made from hardened steel and maintain structural integrity under compression loads typical in panel assembly applications.
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.
