Open the catalog to page 1
PEM® self-clinching standoffs, which use the proven self-clinching design, provide ideal solutions for applications where mounting, spacing or stacking of panels, boards or components are required. Pressed into round holes, these fasteners mount permanently into metal sheets as thin as .025" / 0.63 mm. Specially designed SO4™, BSO4™ and TSO4™ standoffs are made from hardened stainless steel and are ideal for clinching into stainless steel sheets. An optional nickel plating is now available if product is expected to be used in a corrosive environment. For more information on the proper use...

TSO™/TSOS™/TSOA™/TSO4™ STANDOFFS 1. Prepare properly sized mounting hole in sheet. Do not perform any secondary operation such as deburring. 2. Insert standoff through mounting hole (preferably the punch side) of sheet and into anvil as shown in drawing. 3. With installation punch and anvil surfaces parallel, apply only enough squeezing force to embed the standoff's head flush in the sheet. Drawing at right shows required installation anvil for sheet thickness of .025" to .032" / 0.63 mm to 0.81 mm. A chamfered anvil is not required for sheets over .032" / 0.81 mm.

(1) Published installation forces are for general reference. Actual set-up and confirmation of complete installation should be made by observing proper seating of fastener as described in the installation steps. Other performance values reported are averages when all proper installation parameters and procedures are followed. Variations in mounting hole size, sheet material, and installation procedure may affect performance. Performance testing this product in your application is recommended. We will be happy to provide technical assistance and/ or samples for this purpose. (2) Joint...
