Blind-threaded self-clinching standoffs with a flush, closed-end barrel for installation into metal sheets, featuring a threaded insert and a knurled head for improved grip. Designed for applications requiring a flush appearance on the blind side, these units install into sheets with rockwell hardness HRB 80 or less and can accommodate M4 threads with a length of 0.500 inches (12.7 mm). The BSOA style is suitable for aluminum sheets with a hardness up to HRB 50 or HB 82, and includes an optional nickel plating for corrosion resistance. Installations require a minimum hole size of 4.8 mm and a minimum distance to edge of 7.9 mm.
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.
