SOA™ through-hole unthreaded self-clinching standoffs are designed for mounting, spacing, or stacking panels in steel or aluminum sheets with a Rockwell 'B' hardness of 50 or less and Brinell hardness of 82 or less. They install permanently into round holes as thin as 0.63 mm. The SOA series has a minimum hole size of 0.050 inches, a minimum distance to edge of 0.31 inches, and a barrel diameter of 0.188 inches. It is available in lengths from 0.125 to 1.062 inches, with the 6116 code indicating 1.125 inches (36/32 inch length). No thread or plating suffix is specified for this variant.
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.
