BSOA blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs are designed for installation into steel or aluminum sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 50 or less and Brinell hardness of 82 or less, providing flush, closed-end mounting for panels. The BSOA series features a hardened stainless steel barrel with a thread size of #10-32 and a length code of 18, corresponding to 0.562 inches. Installation requires a minimum hole size of 0.050 inches and a minimum distance from the hole centerline to the sheet edge of 0.31 inches. The series is intended for use where the backside of the sheet is inaccessible, allowing secure, permanent mounting without protruding threads.
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.
