SOA-M5-16 is a through-hole threaded self-clinching standoff designed for installation into aluminum sheets with a Rockwell 'B' hardness of 50 or less and a Brinell hardness of 82 or less. It features an M5 x 0.8 thread, a nominal length of 16 mm, and installs flush with the sheet surface. The product is made from hardened stainless steel to ensure durability and corrosion resistance. The standoff requires a minimum hole size of 5.35 mm and a minimum distance to edge of 8 mm for proper clinching. It is part of the SOA series, which accepts the M5 thread size and is available in standardized length increments.
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.
