TSO, TSOA, and TSOS self-clinching threaded standoffs install permanently into metal sheets as thin as 0.63 mm, providing internal threads for panel mounting. They are designed for thinner sheets than standard SO series standoffs and feature a barrel end suitable for close-to-edge installations. The series is available in metric thread sizes including M3, M3.5, M4, and M5 with pitch values of 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, and 0.8 mm respectively. Lengths range from 3 mm to 25 mm in increments matching the part code. The part number TSO-6M3-1000ZI corresponds to a variant in this series with M3 x 0.5 thread and 10 mm length, though specific finish or plating details are not provided for this exact code. All variants in the series are manufactured for use in steel or aluminum sheets and require proper hole size and spacing for installation.
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 TSO, TSOS, and TSOA self-clinching threaded standoffs provide permanent threads in sheets as thin as 0.63 mm.
