Product Description
The BSO-6440-10ZI is a self-clinching blind threaded standoff designed for permanent installation in thin metal sheets. Utilizing a proven clinching profile, the fastener is installed by pressing it into a round hole using a standard squeeze action. The blind-thread (closed-end) design is a vital feature, ensuring that the outer sheet surface remains flush and closed, providing a clean, unmarred appearance while effectively sealing the assembly against environmental contaminants. Manufactured from heat-treated carbon steel with a zinc finish, it is ideal for applications requiring specific spacing and secure component mounting in metal chassis.
Environmental Protection: The closed-end design prevents the ingress of dust, moisture, or debris through the fastener hole.
Permanent Attachment: The self-clinching action becomes an integral part of the metal sheet, offering high resistance to pushout and torque-out.
Flush Finish: Maintains a smooth exterior panel surface for high-end aesthetic and functional requirements.
Assembly Efficiency: Eliminates the need for secondary operations like tapping or welding and reduces the count of loose hardware.
Specific Clearance: Provides a reliable .312 in standoff height for consistent internal component clearance.
