SOA™ through-hole unthreaded self-clinching standoffs are designed for mounting, spacing, or stacking panels in aluminum sheets with a Rockwell 'B' hardness of 50 or less and a Brinell hardness of 82 or less. They install permanently into round holes in sheets as thin as 0.63 mm and are suited for applications requiring flush, non-threaded mounting. The part number SOA-8169-4 matches the SOA series, which features a standard thread size of #8-32 and a length of 0.500 inch. The standoff's barrel has no internal threads and is intended for use as a spacer or alignment feature. Material is hardened stainless steel, with optional nickel plating available for corrosion resistance.
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.
