SOAG grounding standoffs are self-clinching, unthreaded fasteners designed for clinching into steel or aluminum sheets, with grounding/earthing teeth on the barrel end to ensure electrical contact with a mating PC board. They are available in lengths from 0.125 in to 0.500 in, with a minimum hole size of 0.040 in and minimum distance to sheet edge of 0.27 in. The SOAG-6440-4 variant is specified for use in aluminum sheets with a hardness of HRB 50 or HB 82 or less. The standoff has a nominal barrel diameter of 0.213 in and a head-to-back length of 0.125 in, with a hole center-to-edge distance of 0.27 in.
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.
Types SOAG and SOSG grounding standoffs are designed for clinching into steel or aluminum chassis while the “gripping teeth” on the opposite end of the standoff firmly contact mating PC board.
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.
For special lengths greater than .500”, Types SOSG and SOAG are blind threaded.
Not Stocked, available on special order.
