Blind threaded self-clinching standoffs designed for mounting into metal sheets, providing a flush, closed-end profile on the front surface. This variant features a #6-32 thread, a 0.213 in nominal shaft diameter, and a 0.250 in minimum distance to edge. The part accommodates sheet thicknesses up to 0.188 in and is constructed from hardened stainless steel for installation into stainless steel sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 88 or less. A thicker barrel wall enhances bearing surface and reduces risk of panel damage. The ZI suffix indicates optional nickel plating for corrosion resistance. Mounted by pressing into a round hole, the standoff becomes permanently installed without requiring access to the rear side of the sheet.
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
