SOA-M3-16 is a through-hole threaded self-clinching standoff designed for aluminum sheets with a Rockwell 'B' hardness of 50 or less and Brinell hardness of 82 or less. It features an M3 x 0.5 thread, a 3.2 mm minimum hole size, and a nominal length of 8 mm. The standoff installs flush with the sheet surface and is compatible with thin aluminum sheets as specified for the SOA series. It is made from material suitable for aluminum applications and does not include optional nickel plating unless specified with an NC suffix.
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.
