Electro Hardware MP435M06F16M2.5 Female Hex Standoff M2.5

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE MP435M06F16M2.5 is a female hex circuit board standoff designed for metric fastening applications in electronics assembly and PCB mounting. Machined from aluminum alloy to material grade T3 and finished with a plain, bright uncoated surface, this standoff features an M2.5 x 0.45 fully threaded female thread running the full 18 mm thread depth. The hex body profile measures 4.5 mm width across flats, providing positive wrench engagement during installation. It is specified to QQ-A-225A Comp 2 standards and is appropriate for use by electronics assemblers, electrical technicians, and panel builders working on PCB mounting tasks.

This standoff is suited for applications requiring metric M2.5 fastening in circuit board assemblies, electronics enclosures, control panels, and similar equipment. The fully threaded female interior allows a mating male screw to engage through the board from below while a second fastener threads into the top, creating a secure standoff layer between the PCB and the chassis or secondary board. The aluminum construction keeps weight low in weight-sensitive assemblies. Minimum order quantity is 10 pieces; each package contains 1 unit.

Key Features

• Fully threaded female M2.5 x 0.45 thread with 18 mm thread depth for full-length engagement
• Hex body at 4.5 mm width across flats allows standard hex wrench or socket installation
• Aluminum T3 grade construction provides lightweight, corrosion-resistant performance
• Plain, bright uncoated finish meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 specification
• Length tolerance of -0.13 to 0.13 mm supports precision PCB stack height requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric standoff for circuit board mounting applications requiring M2.5 x 0.45 female threaded hardware in aluminum hex body form factor.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electronics technicians or panel assemblers using a hex wrench or nut driver sized for 4.5 mm across flats. De-energize and discharge all circuits before working on any PCB or control panel assembly. Avoid over-torquing aluminum standoffs, as the material is softer than steel and threads can strip under excessive load. Follow applicable assembly drawings and IPC standards for PCB mounting hardware torque and placement procedures.
