The BSOA series consists of blind-threaded, self-clinching standoffs designed for permanent installation in metal sheets, providing flush, closed-end mounting. They are made from hardened stainless steel and are suitable for use in sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 88 or less. The M4 thread size has a nominal barrel diameter of 7.14 mm and a minimum hole size of 4.8 mm. The length for code 18 is 18 × 0.03125 inches, or 5.625 mm. Minimum distance from hole center to sheet edge is 8 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.
