PennEngineering’s microPEM MSOFS flaring standoffs designed for compact electronic assemblies

New microPEM® MSOFS™ flaring standoffs from PennEngineering® are designed to attach and space components in compact electronic assemblies. They install permanently in thin panels of any hardness and material. A flaring feature allows for installation into multiple panels.

The standoffs have been engineered with a minimal footprint, enabling reduced centerline-to-edge designs for applications in which available space for fasteners may be limited. Their extremely small and reusable threads accept mating hardware to complete final component attachment.

The flaring standoffs are manufactured from 300 series stainless steel and offered in thread sizes #0-80, #2-56, and M1 to M2. They install in panels from 0.008 to 0.012 in. thick using a punch flaring tool and a recessed anvil.
