Electro Hardware 1310M06F16256 Hex Standoff 2-56 Aluminum

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE 1310M06F16256 is an aluminum male-female hex circuit board standoff designed to create precise spacing between PCBs and mounting surfaces in electronic assemblies. Machined to a 2-56 thread size with an overall body length of 0.4063 inches (13/32 inch), it provides reliable thread engagement on both the male post and female threaded bore. The hex body measures 0.1875 inches (3/16 inch) across flats, allowing standard wrench engagement for controlled installation torque. Material is aluminum grade T3, finished bright and uncoated, and the standoff meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 material standards. This hardware is installed by electronics assemblers, PCB technicians, and trade professionals building or servicing control board assemblies in HVAC, electrical, and industrial equipment panels.

This standoff is suited for residential and commercial control board assemblies where consistent board-to-board or board-to-chassis spacing is required. The male-female configuration allows standoffs to be stacked or used as a single-tier spacer, making them applicable in HVAC control panels, variable speed drives, relay boards, and similar low-voltage electronic enclosures. The 2-56 thread is a standard fine-thread size common in light-duty PCB mounting applications where minimal footprint and precise positioning are critical.

Key Features

• Male-female hex configuration enables stacking or single-tier PCB spacing
• 2-56 thread size for light-duty, fine-thread PCB mounting applications
• 0.4063-inch overall body length (13/32 inch) with 5/32-inch thread length and 3/16-inch thread depth
• Hex body at 0.1875 inches across flats accepts standard nut drivers or wrenches
• Aluminum T3 material with bright uncoated finish resists added weight and corrosion in dry enclosures
• Meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 material standard for consistent alloy quality

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-build fastener for PCB assemblies requiring a 2-56 male-female hex standoff with a 13/32-inch body length in aluminum construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electronics technicians or qualified assemblers working on de-energized control boards. Power down and discharge the assembly before installing or removing standoffs to prevent damage to board components. Use an appropriately sized nut driver or hex wrench sized for 3/16-inch across-flats hardware to avoid rounding the hex body. Length tolerance is -0.005 to +0.005 inches, so verify stack height requirements before final assembly.
