Electro Hardware 1483M06F16-1032 Hex Standoff 10-32

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE 1483M06F16-1032 is a male-female hex circuit board standoff designed to create precise spacing between PCBs, enclosure panels, and mounting surfaces. Machined from 6061-T3 aluminum with an anodized finish, this standoff meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 standards for dimensional and material consistency. The hex body measures 0.25 inches across flats, and the overall length is 2.375 inches with a length tolerance of -0.005 to 0.005 inches. The male thread protrudes 0.375 inches and the female thread depth is 0.5 inches, both cut to a 10-32 UNF thread specification. Electronics assemblers, panel builders, and control board technicians install these in control enclosures, industrial equipment, and HVAC circuit board assemblies where consistent board standoff height and secure fastening are required.

This standoff is suited for residential and commercial control panel assemblies, electronics enclosures, and PCB mounting applications that demand a lightweight yet dimensionally precise fastener. The 10-32 thread is a common pitch in electronics and instrumentation hardware, making this standoff compatible with standard machine screw hardware used across HVAC control boards, electrical enclosures, and instrumentation panels. The anodized aluminum construction reduces weight compared to steel alternatives while providing corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor electrical and control environments.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF male-female thread configuration for stacking or panel-mount applications
• 2.375-inch overall length with 2-inch hex body for consistent board separation
• Hex body profile at 0.25 inches across flats allows wrench or nut driver installation
• Anodized finish on 6061-T3 aluminum provides corrosion resistance and electrical isolation aid
• Meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 aluminum material standard for dimensional and alloy consistency
• Tight length tolerance of plus or minus 0.005 inches suits precision PCB and panel assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit standoff for circuit board and panel mounting applications using 10-32 UNF hardware in aluminum hex standoff configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electronics assemblers or control panel technicians using a wrench or nut driver sized for 0.25-inch hex flats. De-energize all circuits and discharge any capacitors before working inside control enclosures or handling circuit boards. Thread engagement should be verified on both the male and female ends to ensure full thread depth is used and fasteners are not cross-threaded. Follow applicable enclosure assembly guidelines and applicable electrical codes when mounting boards inside live-wired enclosures.
