Electro Hardware 1483M03F21-1032 Hex Standoff 10-32

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE 1483M03F21-1032 is a male-female hex circuit board standoff designed to create fixed spacing between PCBs and mounting surfaces or between stacked boards in electronic enclosures. Machined from brass with a zinc-plated finish meeting ASTM B633 Type 1 and QQ-B-626 Comp 22 standards, this standoff provides corrosion resistance and reliable conductivity in panel and circuit board assemblies. The hex body measures 0.25 inches across flats, with an overall length of 2.375 inches, a body length of 2 inches, and a thread length of 0.375 inches. The 10-32 male-female thread configuration accepts a mating screw on the male end while threading onto a post or screw on the female end.

This standoff is suited for use in HVAC control panels, electrical enclosures, industrial equipment, and other assemblies where circuit boards must be mounted at a fixed standoff height. Its hex body allows positive tightening with a standard wrench or hex driver, making it a practical choice for technicians building or servicing panel assemblies that require secure, vibration-resistant board mounting.

Key Features

• Male-female thread configuration allows stacking or single-board mounting on 10-32 threaded posts or screws
• Brass construction with zinc-plated finish meets ASTM B633 Type 1 and QQ-B-626 Comp 22 standards
• Hex body profile enables wrench or hex driver installation for secure torque application
• Overall length of 2.375 inches with a 2-inch hex body provides substantial board clearance
• Length tolerance of -0.005 to 0.005 inches ensures consistent stack height in multi-board assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 male-female hex standoff for use in circuit board mounting applications requiring a 2-3/8-inch overall standoff height with a 1/4-inch hex body.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electronics technicians or electricians during panel assembly or board replacement. Power down and de-energize the enclosure fully before working on any mounted circuit boards. Use an appropriately sized wrench or hex driver on the 1/4-inch flats to tighten without over-stressing the brass body. Follow applicable NEC guidelines when installing boards within electrical enclosures.
