Electro Hardware MP1017M19F16M3 Hex Standoff M3x0.5

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE MP1017M19F16M3 is a female hex circuit board standoff designed to create precise spacing between PCBs and mounting surfaces in electronic assemblies. Manufactured from nylon with a plain, uncoated finish, this standoff accepts an M3 x 0.5 thread on the female end and provides a 9 mm overall length with a fully threaded 9 mm thread depth. The hexagonal body measures 6 mm across flats, allowing standard hex tooling for installation and removal. It meets MIL-P-17091B standards, making it suitable for applications where dimensional and material consistency is required. Licensed electricians, electronics technicians, and PCB assembly professionals typically install these fasteners during board mounting and chassis assembly work.

This standoff is used in circuit board mounting applications across residential, commercial, and industrial electronic enclosures. It is particularly suited for stacking PCBs, securing boards to chassis panels, and creating insulated standoff columns where metal-to-board contact must be avoided. The nylon material provides electrical isolation between the board and the mounting surface, which is a common requirement in control board assemblies found in HVAC equipment, industrial controls, and power distribution panels.

Key Features

• Female hex body with M3 x 0.5 thread for standard metric fastener compatibility
• 9 mm overall length with fully threaded 9 mm thread depth for maximum thread engagement
• 6 mm width across flats allows installation with standard hex drivers or nut drivers
• Nylon construction provides electrical isolation and corrosion resistance
• Plain, uncoated finish suitable for general electronics assembly environments
• Meets MIL-P-17091B fastener standard for consistent dimensional and material performance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric M3 x 0.5 female hex standoff for PCB mounting and board stacking applications in electronic enclosures and control assemblies.

Installation Notes

Power down and de-energize all circuits before installing or removing circuit board standoffs. Use a hex driver or nut driver sized to the 6 mm across-flats dimension to avoid stripping the nylon body. Do not overtighten, as nylon fasteners are subject to deformation under excessive torque. Installation is typically performed by electronics technicians or licensed electricians in accordance with applicable assembly drawings and IPC standards.
