PEM SNAP-TOP® Standoffs (Types SSA, SSS, SSC) are designed for permanent installation into metal panels or PC boards. These all-metal standoffs use a spring action to hold PC boards and subassemblies securely, while allowing for quick removal. Screws and other threaded hardware are eliminated, streamlining assembly processes and reducing the risk of damaging delicate circuitry. Installation is simple, requiring only the squeezing of the standoffs into a properly sized hole using a standard press. Made of 400 Series Stainless Steel with a Passivated finish, these standoffs ensure durability and compliance with RoHS regulations. View Animation for a visual guide on their functionality.
