Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs designed for mounting into metal sheets with no access to the blind side, providing a flush, closed-end appearance. The BSOA series features a grounded barrel end with earthing teeth for electrical continuity, intended for use in aluminum sheets with a maximum hardness of HRB 50 or HB 82. The part installs into a minimum hole size of 4.22 mm and requires a minimum distance of 6 mm from the hole center to the sheet edge. The threaded bore is M3 with a pitch of 0.5 mm and a length of 20 mm. The series is made from hardened stainless steel and may be optionally nickel-plated for corrosion resistance.
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.
