Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs for mounting, spacing, or stacking panels, designed to install into metal sheets with a flush, closed-end profile. The BSO series installs into sheets as thin as 0.63 mm and is suitable for steel or aluminum with Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less. These standoffs feature a threaded bore for mating components and permanently mount by pressing into a round hole, eliminating the need for access to the backside of the panel. The part number BSO-440-32ZI corresponds to a .112-40 thread size with a length of 0.125 inch. The standard head style and barrel profile are optimized for clinching in common sheet metal materials without requiring additional fastening hardware.
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.
