PEM SO-RT™ Free Running Locking Standoffs
PEM SO-RT™ Free-Running Locking Standoffs feature a self-clinching design, ideal for applications requiring mounting panels or components. When pressed into round holes, these fasteners permanently mount into metal sheets as thin as .025"/0.63mm. Self-clinching standoffs are available with PEM RT free-running locking threads that generate friction proportional to the clamp load induced by tightening the bolted joint. These standoffs improve load distribution across all threads, resist vibrational loosening, and feature locking that remains consistent regardless of on/off cycles.
Features
- Improves load distribution among all threads, reducing stress on first engaged thread
- Turns freely until the clamp load is applied
- Resistant to vibrational loosening
- Locking feature reusability is not affected by the number of on/off cycles
- Uses same mounting hole and installation tooling as standard standoff
