Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs designed for mounting into metal sheets, featuring a flush, closed-end barrel for unobstructed front-surface appearance. The BSOA series installs into steel or aluminum sheets with a hardness of HRB 80 or less, and includes variants with thicker walls to reduce the risk of board cracking; the 8632 thread code indicates a .164-32 thread size with enhanced bearing surface. The part is permanently secured by press-fitting into a round hole, with no requirement for additional fasteners or access to the opposite side.
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
