SO series self-clinching standoffs are unthreaded fasteners designed for mounting, spacing, or stacking panels in sheet metal assemblies with minimum thickness of 0.025 inch (0.63 mm). They install permanently into round holes with a clinching process, and are suitable for steel or aluminum sheets with Rockwell B hardness of 80 or less, or Brinell hardness of 150 or less. The product is available in multiple length increments and features a closed-end barrel for flush mounting. The SO4 variant is specified for stainless steel, but the SO series itself is not plated unless the optional nickel coating (designated by NC suffix) is specified. Part number SO-8194-10ZI is not listed, but the SO series is described as unthreaded, through-hole, and installation-compati
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.
