Electro Hardware EBSO-632-16ZI Hex Standoff 6-32 0.5in Pack 25

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE EBSO-632-16ZI is a female hex circuit board standoff designed for securing and spacing printed circuit boards within electronic enclosures and control panels. Manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance, this standoff features a 6-32 female thread, an overall length of 0.5 inches, and a hex body with a width across flats of 0.25 inches. The blind-hole, self-clinching fastening method allows for secure, flush mounting in sheet metal panels. Electricians, control panel builders, and electronics technicians install these standoffs during PCB assembly and enclosure builds where consistent board-to-surface spacing is required.

This standoff is suited for residential and commercial control panel applications, electronics manufacturing, and field service work where circuit boards must be mounted securely and held at a fixed standoff height. The 6-32 thread size is a standard inch-series fastener commonly used across HVAC control boards, relay panels, and industrial electronic enclosures. Each package contains 25 pieces, making this item practical for production runs or stocking a service van with hardware.

Key Features

• Female 6-32 thread accepts standard machine screws for board attachment
• Hex body profile allows wrench engagement for precise installation and removal
• Self-clinching design with blind hole for flush, permanent panel mounting
• Zinc-plated steel construction provides corrosion resistance in typical indoor environments
• 0.5-inch overall length provides consistent PCB standoff height
• Sold in packs of 25 to support production and service applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series female hex circuit board standoff suitable for use in electronic enclosures, control panels, and PCB assemblies that use 6-32 machine screw fasteners.

Installation Notes

Circuit board standoffs of this type are typically installed by electricians or electronics technicians during control panel assembly or PCB mounting. De-energize all circuits and discharge any capacitors before working inside control enclosures. A hex wrench or nut driver sized to 0.25-inch width across flats is recommended for proper seating. Self-clinching standoffs require appropriate press-force application into the panel material — do not use impact tools that may damage the thread or panel substrate.
