SO-M4-18ZI is a through-hole threaded self-clinching standoff designed for installation in metal sheets, with a nominal M4 thread and a length of 18 in 32nds of an inch (0.562 inches). It is made from hardened stainless steel and is suitable for use in stainless steel sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 88 or less. The standoff installs flush with the sheet surface after clinching into a minimum hole size of 4.8 mm and requires a minimum distance of 7.9 mm from the hole center to the edge. The 'ZI' suffix indicates optional nickel plating for corrosion resistance. All SO-series standoffs share the same self-clinching design and permanent mounting capability in sheet thicknesses as low as 0.63 mm.
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.
PEM® brand thru-hole threaded standoffs are installed with their heads flush with one surface of the mounting sheet.
