BSO-series blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs install permanently into metal sheets through a blind hole, providing flush, closed-end mounting. They are designed for steel or aluminum sheets with Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less, and feature a thicker wall to increase bearing surface and reduce the risk of panel damage. The BSO-8632 variant accommodates #8-32 threads and is available in lengths up to 1.062 inches. All BSO-series standoffs mount in holes with a minimum diameter of 0.050 inches and require a minimum distance of 0.31 inches from the hole centerline to the sheet edge.
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
