Self-Clinching & Weld Fasteners

Clear Hole Standoffs

Unthreaded spacers for a screw that passes right through.

Section: Self-clinching
Type: Standoffs

Overview

Clear hole standoffs have a plain bore instead of a thread. A screw passes through them to a nut or tapped part beyond, while the standoff sets the spacing.

Full dimensions, preferred lengths and installation / push-out / torque-out performance data are in the tables below, taken from the self-clinching fasteners catalogue.
