The SO series of through-hole threaded self-clinching standoffs are designed for permanent installation in sheet metals up to 0.063 in thick, with M5 x 0.8 thread size and length of 0.562 in (14.27 mm) for the 18-length code. These standoffs are made of hardened stainless steel and are suitable for clinching into stainless steel sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 88 or less. They install flush with the sheet surface and require a minimum hole size of 5.35 mm and a minimum distance to edge of 7.9 mm. The head configuration allows for standard mounting applications with no grounding features or knurling.
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.
