Electro Hardware P517M07F16-1032 Female Standoff 10-32

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE P517M07F16-1032 is a round female standoff designed for use in panel assembly, enclosure fabrication, and equipment mounting applications. It features a 10-32 internal thread, an overall length of 0.3125 inches (5/16 inches), and an outside diameter of 0.250 inches (1/4 inches). The body is fully threaded to a depth of 1 inch and manufactured from 18-8 and Grade 303 stainless steel with a bright finish. This standoff meets QQ-S-763 fastener standards. Electricians, panel builders, and mechanical technicians typically install these fasteners in control panels, electronic enclosures, and instrumentation racks where corrosion resistance and precise thread engagement are required.

This female standoff is suited for light-duty panel and enclosure work in both commercial and industrial settings. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with exposure to moisture or mild corrosives. Its compact 5/16 inch body length fits tight-clearance installations where standard hex standoffs would not seat properly. The inch-system thread sizing makes it directly compatible with standard 10-32 machine screws used throughout electrical and electronic assembly work.

Key Features

• 10-32 fully threaded female internal thread for secure fastener engagement
• Overall length of 0.3125 inches (5/16 inches) for compact, tight-clearance installations
• Outside diameter of 0.250 inches (1/4 inches) round body profile
• 18-8 and Grade 303 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Bright finish meeting QQ-S-763 fastener standard
• Length tolerance of -0.005 to 0.005 inches for consistent fit in precision assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style female standoff for use with standard 10-32 machine screws in inch-system panel and enclosure assemblies.

Installation Notes

Panel builders and mechanical technicians install female standoffs using standard hand tools; no specialized tooling is typically required for this thread size. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before seating the standoff to avoid cross-threading the 10-32 internal thread. De-energize all circuits and verify lockout-tagout procedures are followed before working inside live electrical enclosures. Do not overtighten mating fasteners, as stainless steel threads can gall under excessive torque without proper lubrication.
