Electro Hardware MP1045M06F16M4 Female Hex Standoff M4

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE MP1045M06F16M4 is a female hex circuit board standoff machined from aluminum T3 alloy with a plain, bright uncoated finish. It accepts M4 x 0.7 metric threads and measures 23 mm (approximately 0.906 inches) overall length with a fully threaded interior to the full 23 mm thread depth. The hex body measures 6 mm (approximately 0.236 inches) across the flats, providing a secure wrench grip during installation. These standoffs are installed by electronics assemblers, PCB technicians, and electrical panel builders to create fixed spacing between circuit boards and mounting surfaces or between stacked boards in an assembly.

This standoff is suited for metric-threaded circuit board assemblies in industrial controls, electrical enclosures, and electronic equipment racks. The fully threaded female configuration accepts an M4 x 0.7 male fastener from both ends, making it useful for board-to-board stacking applications as well as board-to-chassis mounting. The aluminum construction keeps weight low while providing adequate strength for typical PCB support loads. This part ships in a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces, with a package quantity of 1 per unit designation.

Key Features

• M4 x 0.7 fully threaded female hex standoff — accepts standard metric M4 male fasteners
• 23 mm overall length with full 23 mm thread depth for maximum thread engagement
• 6 mm hex body width across flats allows standard metric nut driver or wrench installation
• Aluminum T3 alloy construction — lightweight and corrosion-resistant for indoor electronic assemblies
• Plain bright uncoated finish — no additional coating to affect thread fit or dimensional tolerance
• Length tolerance of -0.13 to 0.13 mm for consistent board spacing in precision assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric standoff for circuit board assemblies requiring M4 x 0.7 female threaded hex spacers in aluminum construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by PCB assemblers or electrical technicians using a 6 mm hex nut driver or metric wrench. Always de-energize and discharge any board assembly before installing or removing standoffs to prevent electrostatic discharge or short-circuit damage. Avoid over-torquing aluminum standoffs, as the material is softer than steel and threads can strip under excessive force. Confirm thread engagement on both mating fasteners before applying any load to the standoff.
