Electro Hardware MP1007M06F16M3 Female Hex Standoff M3

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE MP1007M06F16M3 is a female hex circuit board standoff designed to create precise, repeatable spacing between PCBs and mounting surfaces in electronic assemblies. Machined from aluminum alloy T3 to the QQ-A-225A Comp 2 standard, this standoff features a fully threaded female interior at M3 x 0.5 thread size with a 4 mm thread depth. The hex body measures 6 mm across flats, providing a clean wrench grip during installation. At 4 mm overall length, it suits compact board stacking configurations where tight clearances matter. Electronics assembly technicians and field service professionals install these standoffs in control boards, inverters, and other enclosure-mounted PCB applications.

This standoff is suited for metric fastener assemblies in residential and commercial electronic control panels, HVAC control boards, variable frequency drives, and similar equipment. The M3 x 0.5 thread pitch is a standard metric size common across a wide range of PCB mounting systems. The plain, bright uncoated aluminum finish keeps the standoff electrically conductive and compatible with grounding schemes where needed. It is typically installed during board fabrication, panel assembly, or service replacement of damaged standoffs in existing equipment.

Key Features

• Fully threaded female interior at M3 x 0.5 for standard metric fastener engagement
• 4 mm overall length and 4 mm full thread depth for compact PCB spacing
• Hex body at 6 mm across flats allows wrench tightening without slippage
• Aluminum T3 material per QQ-A-225A Comp 2 standard for lightweight, corrosion-resistant performance
• Plain bright finish with no coating to preserve dimensional accuracy and conductivity
• Length tolerance of -0.13 to 0.13 mm for consistent board-to-board spacing

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric M3 x 0.5 female hex standoff suitable for PCB mounting applications requiring a 4 mm OAL aluminum spacer with hex body geometry.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electronics assembly technicians or qualified service professionals working on control boards and panel assemblies. De-energize all equipment fully before removing or installing standoffs on live circuit boards. A 6 mm hex driver or wrench should be used to torque the standoff against the mounting surface without over-stressing the aluminum threads. Ensure mating male fasteners are also M3 x 0.5 metric thread to avoid cross-threading and thread damage.
