Hi all,

Can anyone reply back to me on the any IPC specs required to mount a backplane
inside an enclosure.  I'm looking for:

1 - Torque to seat the screw (through the backplane, into standoffs)
2 - Minimum # of turns (threads)

We are seeing some screws backing off during handling (transport).  We are not
using split washers right now due to the engineer's request (however, we plan on
challenging that issue as well).

Any info, on the above 2 items would be helpful.

Todd
