SO, SOS, and SOA through-hole unthreaded self-clinching standoffs are designed for permanent installation in metal sheets as thin as 0.025 inch (0.63 mm) and provide spacing for multi-panel assemblies. They feature a clinching profile compatible with standard press-fit installation and are recommended for steel or aluminum sheets with specified Rockwell B and Brinell hardness limits. All variants share the same base design and installation requirements, with no threaded features or special end treatments.
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.
Unthreaded standoffs are also available for spacing multi-panel assemblies.
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
