BSOA standoffs are blind-threaded, self-clinching fasteners designed for permanent installation in sheet metal, providing a closed-end, flush surface on the installation side. Constructed from hardened stainless steel, they are intended for use in aluminum sheets with a maximum hardness of HRB 50 or HB 82. The part is installed into a minimum hole size of 0.040 inch with a minimum distance of 0.27 inch from the hole center to the sheet edge. The threaded bore accepts a 1/4-20 UNC thread and the standoff length is 0.250 inch. These standoffs mount into material as thin as 0.025 inch and are designed for applications requiring a non-exposed threaded end.
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.
