SOA™ through-hole unthreaded self-clinching standoffs are designed for mounting, spacing, or stacking panels in sheet metal as thin as 0.63 mm, with installation into aluminum sheets having a Rockwell 'B' hardness of 50 or less. The part installs permanently into round holes with a minimum hole size of 0.050 in (1.27 mm) and a minimum distance to edge of 0.31 in (7.9 mm). It features a knurled head for flush appearance and is available in standardized lengths, including 0.500 in (12.7 mm), as indicated by the length code 8 in the part number. The standoff is specified for use in aluminum and does not include threading or grounding teeth.
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
