Need to purchase some captive studs 6-32, 3/4 to 1 inch and having a
hard time finding them. Saw one source but 1000pc minimum (last
resort).

Anyone know off hand a distributor that may have them? (online
preferably).

Tried Fastenal but they really don't do many small specialty parts.

THANKS.

If you want plain old PEM sheetmetal clinch
studs, Mcmaster has them. I order some
a couple of months ago. I think they only
go up to 1/2" tall though. Minimum order
is 25 I think.

Go to Mcmaster-carr.com and do a search on
clinch standoffs.

If it matters to anyone, I don't think they're all actual PEM parts,
maybe clones. IIRC, we got some that don't have PEM's trademark
non-functional groove.

I think I ordered 3 different sizes. One
was genuine PEM, the other two were Taiwanese
copies, but good in form, fit and function.

Solved the problem -- needed them quick.

SW Anderson -- never even heard of them before, but they had stock.

Thanks.
