Electro Hardware P529M06F16-832 Hex Standoff 8-32 Aluminum

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE P529M06F16-832 is a female hex circuit board standoff designed to create fixed spacing between PCBs and mounting surfaces in electronic assemblies. Machined from aluminum alloy to material grade T-3 with an anodized bright finish, this standoff measures 0.5 inches in overall length with a 0.25-inch hex width across flats and accepts an 8-32 female thread. The hex body profile allows for wrench engagement during installation and removal without marring the part. It meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 fastener standards. Electronics assemblers, panel builders, and HVAC technicians mounting control boards to chassis or enclosures will commonly use this hardware.

This standoff is suited for use in residential and commercial electronic enclosures, control panel assemblies, and circuit board mounting applications where consistent board-to-chassis clearance is required. It is appropriate wherever an 8-32 threaded female standoff with a 0.5-inch overall length and hex body is specified. The anodized aluminum construction makes it well suited for indoor control cabinet environments where a lightweight, corrosion-resistant fastener is preferred over steel hardware.

Key Features

• Female 8-32 threaded bore for standard machine screw engagement
• 0.5-inch overall length with a tight length tolerance of -0.005 to 0.005 inches for precision board spacing
• Hex body profile with 0.25-inch width across flats allows wrench-driven installation
• Aluminum construction with anodized bright finish resists corrosion and reduces weight
• Meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use component for electronic control board mounting applications requiring an 8-32 female hex standoff with a 0.5-inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electronics assemblers, panel builders, or licensed electricians working on control enclosures. Power down and de-energize all circuits in the enclosure before servicing or mounting circuit boards. Use an appropriately sized hex wrench or nut driver sized for 0.25-inch flats to drive the standoff without stripping the hex body. Follow applicable NEC guidelines when assembling components inside electrical enclosures.
