SOAG grounding standoffs are self-clinching unthreaded fasteners designed for clinching into steel or aluminum sheets, with a barrel end featuring grounding/earthing teeth for firm contact with mating PCBs. The SOAG-8632-10 variant is specified for use in aluminum sheets with a Rockwell B hardness of 50 or less and installs in a minimum hole size of 0.050 inches (1.27 mm) with a minimum distance to edge of 0.31 inches (7.9 mm). It has a thread size of #6-32 and an overall length of 0.312 inches (7.9 mm). The standoff is made from hardened stainless steel and is intended for applications requiring electrical grounding.
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.
