ABSTRACT:
A metal spacer having an area of reduced thickness between substrate engaging members. The reduction in thickness not only provides for reduced thermal transmission between the substrate engaging members and thus the substrates engaged therewith but further permits the spacer to absorb any negative or positive pressure translated to the spacer body by substrates contacting the spacer. For enhanced strength, the portion of reduced thickness may be bent in any one of a number of configurations depending upon the requirements and potential pressure to be experienced by the spacer or any assembly including the spacer. In a further embodiment, the metal spacer body may be embossed to enhance strength. The result of the spacer is a light-weight spacer element with reduced energy transmission between substrates engaged therewith.
