Spacers and Standoffs are two common types of positioning electronic hardware.
They provide sturdy support, alignment and spacing to a variety of applications such as circuit board assemblies, panels and doors.
A standoff is a threaded separator of defined length used to raise one assembly above another.
They are usually round or hex (for wrench tightening), often made of aluminum, brass, or nylon, and come in male-female or female-female forms. In electronics they are frequently used to raise a printed-circuit board above a surface.
Insulating standoffs keep two parts from touching each other, thereby preventing electrical shorts. These are made from Nylon.
We maintain a ready range of Spacers and Inserts
Through Internal Threaded
Hex Spacers
These are Internal Threaded Spacers and are available in Brass-Nickel coated, Nylon and Stainless Steel. Other options on special order. Suitable for using with screws at both ends providing a clean finish. Nylon Spacers may have metal inserts to provide stronger threads. These will however be separated by a non conductive material to ensure insulation.
