Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs install permanently into metal sheets with a flush, closed-end profile on the head side. The BSOA series is designed for use in aluminum sheets with a Rockwell Hardness B scale of 50 or less and Brinell Hardness of 82 or less. It features a thicker wall compared to standard variants to reduce the risk of damage to mating components. The part is installed into a minimum hole size of 0.040 in, with a minimum distance to edge of 0.27 in. Length is 0.312 in (10 in 32nds).
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
