Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs install permanently into metal sheets by pressing into round holes, providing flush, closed-end mounting. The BSO series is designed for use in steel or aluminum sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less and Brinell hardness of 150 or less. It features a threaded barrel for blind-hole applications and a head that remains flush after installation. The part number BSO-832-10ZI corresponds to the BSO variant with an 8-32 thread size and a length of 0.312 inches (10 in 32nds). Minimum hole size is 0.050 inches, and minimum distance from hole center to edge is 0.31 inches. These standoffs are not intended for use in stainless steel sheets.
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.
