Electro Hardware 1451M06F16-1032 Hex Standoff 10-32 Aluminum

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE 1451M06F16-1032 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 aluminum with an anodized finish, this fastener meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 material standards and carries a T-3 material grade. The hex body profile measures 0.25 inches across flats and provides a wrench-flat grip for precise installation torque. With an overall length of 1.375 inches and a hex body length of 1 inch, it delivers reliable board-to-board or board-to-chassis spacing in applications where lightweight corrosion-resistant hardware is required. Electrical technicians, panel builders, and electronics assembly professionals install these standoffs in both field and shop environments.

This standoff is suited for residential and commercial control panel assemblies, HVAC system circuit boards, low-voltage electronic enclosures, and industrial electronics mounting applications. The 10-32 thread size is a common fastener standard found across a wide range of PCB and chassis mounting configurations. The male end threads into the chassis or lower board while the female end accepts a machine screw to capture the upper board, creating a stable stacked mounting arrangement. It is appropriate wherever a lightweight, non-magnetic, and corrosion-resistant standoff is specified.

Key Features

• Male-female hex configuration allows stacked board mounting with a single fastener point per standoff
• Aluminum construction with anodized finish provides corrosion resistance and lightweight performance
• 10-32 thread size on both male and female ends for broad compatibility with standard PCB hardware
• Hex body shape accepts standard wrench for controlled installation without slipping
• Meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 fastener standard, T-3 material grade
• Overall length of 1.375 inches with a 1-inch hex body provides consistent board spacing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation hex standoff for circuit board assemblies requiring a 10-32 male-female configuration with 0.25-inch width across flats and 1.375-inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electricians or electronics assembly technicians. Always de-energize and lock out the panel or enclosure before installing or removing circuit board hardware in compliance with applicable NFPA 70 (NEC) lockout-tagout requirements. Use an appropriately sized wrench on the hex flats to seat the standoff without over-torquing the aluminum threads. Inspect threads on both the male pin and female bore for damage before installation to avoid cross-threading or stripping.
