CSOS-M5-10 is a stainless steel concealed-head self-clinching standoff designed for permanent installation in metal sheets as thin as 1.6 mm. It installs using a blind milled hole and leaves the opposite sheet surface smooth and unmarred, suitable for applications requiring ingress protection. The standoff features an M5 x 0.8 thread and is compatible with sheets having a hardness of HRB 70 or less. Installation requires a HAEGER® or PEMSERTER® press with specific tooling, and the minimum mounting depth is 6.4 mm. The product meets ASME B1.13M, 6h thread standards and is passivated. Custom configurations are available upon request.
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.
