Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs install permanently into metal sheets with a flush, closed-end profile on the head side. The BSO series is designed for use in steel or aluminum sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less. These standoffs feature a threaded bore, a closed-end barrel for flush mounting, and an installation hole diameter of 4.22 mm for the M5 x 0.8 thread size. They are suitable for applications requiring minimum clearance on the sheet's opposite side and support stacking or spacing of panels.
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.
If you require a standoff which we do not offer in this bulletin, please contact us. We will be happy to work with you to satisfy your special need.
Standoffs with thread codes offer greater wall thickness
