Electro Hardware 1435M06F16-832 Hex Board Standoff 8-32

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE 1435M06F16-832 is a male-female hex circuit board standoff designed to space and secure printed circuit boards within electronic enclosures, control panels, and electrical assemblies. Machined from 6061-T3 aluminum with an anodized finish, this standoff meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 specifications. The hex body measures 0.25 inches across flats and has an overall length of 0.875 inches. The male thread extends 0.375 inches and the female thread depth is 0.4375 inches, allowing boards to be stacked or mounted to a panel with a single fastener. Licensed electricians, control panel builders, and electronics technicians are the primary installers.

This standoff is used in residential and commercial control panel assemblies, HVAC control boards, variable frequency drive enclosures, and industrial PCB mounting applications where aluminum construction reduces weight and resists corrosion. The anodized finish provides additional surface hardness and protection against oxidation in moderate-environment installations. The 8-32 thread size is a standard machine screw thread widely used in electronic and electrical panel fabrication, making this standoff compatible with a broad range of off-the-shelf hardware.

Key Features

• Male-female hex configuration allows modular PCB stacking or direct panel mounting
• 8-32 thread size compatible with standard machine screw hardware
• Anodized aluminum construction per QQ-A-225A Comp 2 for corrosion resistance and surface hardness
• Hex body shape allows torque-down with standard open-end or socket wrench without slipping
• Precise length tolerance of plus or minus 0.005 inches for consistent board spacing
• Lightweight aluminum body suitable for weight-sensitive control panel builds

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install standoff for circuit board mounting applications requiring an 8-32 male-female hex standoff with a 0.875-inch overall length in aluminum construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified panel builders. De-energize and lock out the control panel before installing or replacing standoffs in any live assembly. Use a hex driver or open-end wrench sized to 0.25 inches across flats to avoid rounding the hex body. Do not over-torque the male stud into tapped board holes, as aluminum threads can strip under excessive load.
