The SOA-M4-8 is a thru-hole threaded standoff from PennEngineering® designed for use in aluminum sheets with a hardness of HRB 50 or HB 82 or less. This standoff features a self-clinching design that allows for permanent installation in metal sheets as thin as 0.025 inches (0.63 mm). It is suitable for applications requiring mounting, spacing, or stacking of panels and components. The SOA series is particularly noted for its compatibility with softer materials, making it ideal for lightweight applications. The standoff is available with optional nickel plating for enhanced corrosion resistance, which is beneficial in environments prone to moisture or chemical exposure. The product dimensions and specifications are consistent with industry standards, ensuring reliable performance in various engineering applications.
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.
