Machined from 303 stainless steel with a plain bright finish, this standoff carries a 2-56 female thread and measures 5\/16 inches in overall length with a 3\/16 inches width across flats. The hex body allows installation and removal with standard hex tooling. Fully threaded through the 5\/16 inch thread depth, it accepts a mating 2-56 male fastener from either end. Licensed electricians, electronics technicians, and panel builders use this type of hardware during control board assembly and enclosure builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis standoff is suited for light-duty PCB mounting applications in residential and commercial control panels, HVAC equipment boards, low-voltage relay enclosures, and similar electronic assemblies where a compact, corrosion-resistant spacer is required. The 2-56 thread size is common in small-format board mounting scenarios where minimal footprint and reliable thread engagement matter. Its stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments where mild corrosion resistance is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFemale 2-56 thread accepts standard mating screws from either end for secure board-to-chassis attachment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e303 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHex body profile allows tightening with standard hex drivers or open-end wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/16 inches overall length and 3\/16 inches width across flats suit compact PCB spacing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlain bright finish with no coating keeps dimensions consistent and avoids interference in tight clearances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets QQ-S-763 fastener standard for stainless steel hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 2-56 female hex standoff for use in PCB mounting assemblies requiring a 5\/16 inch overall length spacer and 3\/16 inch hex body.

De-energize all control circuits and discharge any stored voltage before handling circuit boards or installing standoffs. Use a correctly sized hex driver or nut driver matching the 3\/16 inch width across flats to avoid rounding the hex body. Do not overtighten, as the 2-56 thread is fine and subject to stripping if excessive torque is applied without torque-limiting tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-56\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 303\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain \/ Bright Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0050 to +0.0050 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: QQ-S-763\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ELECTRO HARDWARE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: P297M09F16256\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ELECTRO HARDWARE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51733824209202,"sku":"P297M09F16256","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/69be0ea513ec4cbce20afd5016302ef1_e73bc25c-4764-443d-ab51-6bff00d8ffd8.jpg?v=1788759485","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/electro-hardware-p297m09f16256-hex-board-standoff","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
