Blind threaded self-clinching standoffs, designed for mounting into metal sheets with a flush, closed-end profile, are installed into round holes and permanently retain their position. This variant features a thicker wall for increased bearing surface, reducing the risk of cracking or cutting into the panel; it is recommended for use in steel or aluminum sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 70 or less and a Brinell hardness of 125 or less. The part is compatible with .138-32 thread size and has a minimum hole size of 0.040 inch and a minimum distance to edge of 0.27 inch. The barrel end is closed to ensure a flush appearance after installation.
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
