Electro Hardware MM1701M12-MSC Hex Standoff 8-32 1/8 in

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE MM1701M12-MSC is a male-male hex circuit board standoff designed for use in electronic assemblies and PCB mounting applications. This fastener features an 8-32 thread size on both ends, an overall length of 0.125 inches, and a hex body shape with a width across flats of 0.375 inches. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it meets the QQ-S-633 fastener standard. Licensed electricians, electronics technicians, and control board service professionals install this type of standoff to create precise separation between circuit boards and mounting surfaces while maintaining a secure, threaded connection on both ends.

This standoff is suited for residential and commercial electronic enclosure work, industrial control panels, and circuit board stacking applications where a compact male-to-male threaded hex spacer is required. Its inch-system dimensioning and 8-32 thread make it a common fit for standard PCB hardware layouts. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor panel and enclosure environments. The compact 0.125-inch overall length is intended for applications requiring minimal board separation.

Key Features

• Male-male thread configuration on both ends for PCB-to-panel or board-to-board mounting
• 8-32 thread size compatible with standard inch-system PCB hardware
• Hex body shape allows wrench engagement for precise torque application
• Grade 2 steel construction provides reliable mechanical strength for fastener-grade applications
• Zinc-plated finish meets QQ-S-633 standard for corrosion resistance in indoor environments
• Compact 0.125-inch overall length suited for tight board spacing requirements

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-system male-male hex circuit board standoff for use in electronic assemblies, control panels, and PCB mounting configurations requiring an 8-32 thread and 0.125-inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electronics technicians or licensed electricians working on control boards or panel assemblies. De-energize all equipment and discharge any stored energy before installing or removing circuit board hardware. Use an appropriately sized hex wrench or nut driver to engage the hex body and avoid over-tightening, which can damage PCB mounting pads or strip the threads. Follow applicable NEC guidelines when working within electrical enclosures.
