Electro Hardware 1483M09F16-832 Hex Standoff 8-32 2-3/8 in Ss

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE 1483M09F16-832 is a male-female hex circuit board standoff designed to separate and support printed circuit boards within an enclosure or chassis. The male end threads into a mounting surface or a mating female standoff, while the female end accepts the next fastener or standoff in a stacked assembly. Machined from 18-8 Grade 303 stainless steel with an anodized finish, this standoff meets QQ-S-763 federal fastener standards. The hexagonal body measures 0.25 inches across flats, making it easy to drive or hold with a standard nut driver or wrench. Overall length is 2.375 inches with a 2-inch hex body.

This standoff is used in PCB mounting applications across industrial controls, HVAC control boards, electrical panel assemblies, and electronic enclosures. It is suited for any installation requiring a secure, corrosion-resistant spacer between a mounting surface and a circuit board. The 8-32 thread size is a common standard in control board and electronics work, making this standoff a practical fit for residential and commercial equipment assemblies where stainless steel construction is preferred for longevity and resistance to oxidation.

Key Features

• Male-female configuration allows stacked or single-level PCB mounting
• 18-8 Grade 303 stainless steel construction meets QQ-S-763 fastener standards
• Anodized finish for added corrosion resistance
• 8-32 thread size with 3/8-inch thread length on the male end and 7/16-inch thread depth on the female end
• Hexagonal body allows secure seating with a standard nut driver or wrench
• Length tolerance held to plus or minus 0.005 inches for consistent stack height

Compatibility

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

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electricians, electronics technicians, or HVAC controls specialists during panel assembly or PCB replacement. Power down and de-energize the equipment fully before working inside any control enclosure. Use a nut driver or open-end wrench sized to the 1/4-inch hex body to seat the standoff without over-torquing the stainless threads. Follow applicable NEC guidelines when installing or servicing enclosed control boards.
