The SOS™ series consists of through-hole unthreaded self-clinching standoffs designed for permanent installation in metal sheets as thin as 0.63 mm, providing spacing for multi-panel assemblies. These standoffs install into round holes with a press-fit method and feature a clinching profile that ensures secure retention. They are compatible with steel or aluminum sheets having a hardness of HRB 70 or less, or HB 125 or less. The series supports standard thread sizes from M3 to M5 with corresponding lengths ranging from 3 mm to 25 mm. Dimensions, minimum hole sizes, and edge clearance are standardized across variants, with material and finish options available for corrosion resistance. The exact part SOS-8194-8 is not explicitly listed, but the series characteristics apply to all SOS™ standoffs.
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.
Unthreaded standoffs are also available for spacing multi-panel assemblies.
