Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs designed for mounting into metal sheets as thin as 0.63 mm, with a flush, closed-end barrel for applications requiring no exposed threads on the outer surface. The BSO series is constructed from hardened stainless steel and is suitable for clinching into materials with a Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less. The 6440 thread code indicates a thicker wall for enhanced bearing surface, reducing the risk of panel damage. Minimum hole size is 0.040 inch, and minimum distance from hole center to sheet edge is 0.27 inch. Installation requires a press fit into a round hole.
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
