Stainless steel concealed-head self-clinching standoffs install permanently in metal sheets as thin as 1.6 mm, leaving the opposite side smooth and unmarred. They require a blind hole of specified diameter and minimum depth for installation using a press with matching anvil and punch tooling. These standoffs satisfy ingress protection requirements by sealing the sheet. Threads meet ASME B1.13M, 6H and are passivated. Minimum sheet thickness for installation is 1.6 mm. Installation tooling includes HAEGER® and PEMSERTER® parts for M3 thread size.
These standoffs ensure permanent mounting in metal sheets as thin as 1.60mm.
The fastener head is locked securely in a blind, milled hole and is able to handle substantial loads. The concealed-head feature allows the side of the sheet opposite installation to remain smooth.
Sheet preparation only requires a milled blind hole to the recommended minimum depth. Center-cutting end mills for hole preparation are available from PennEngineering. Installation of the concealed-head studs and standoffs is simple using a hollow anvil and solid punch. Place the head of the fastener in the hole and insert using any standard press. Displaced sheet metal flows smoothly around the head into the undercut.
