Electro Hardware P529M09F16-832 Female Hex Standoff 8-32

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE P529M09F16-832 is a female hex circuit board standoff designed to create fixed spacing between a PCB and a chassis, panel, or secondary board. Machined from 18-8 and Grade 303 stainless steel with an anodized bright finish, this standoff meets the QQ-S-763 fastener standard for corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency. It features an 8-32 female thread on both ends, an overall length of 0.5 inches, and a hexagonal body measuring 0.25 inches across flats. Electricians, electronics technicians, and panel builders use this hardware when assembling control boards, relay panels, and enclosure-mounted circuit boards where consistent, secure standoff height is required.

This standoff is suited for light commercial and industrial control panel assembly, HVAC circuit board mounting, and electronic enclosure fabrication. The hex body allows a standard wrench or nut driver to torque the standoff into place without slipping. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with moderate moisture exposure or where corrosion resistance is a priority over cost. Package quantity is one piece, with no minimum order quantity beyond a single unit.

Key Features

• Female 8-32 threaded hex standoff for PCB and panel mounting applications
• 18-8 and Grade 303 stainless steel construction meets QQ-S-763 fastener standard
• Anodized bright finish for corrosion resistance
• 0.5 inch overall length with a length tolerance of -0.005 to +0.005 inches
• 0.25 inch width across flats allows wrench or nut driver installation
• Hex body shape prevents rotation during tightening

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation standoff for circuit boards using 8-32 thread fasteners in standard hex standoff configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electronics technicians, electricians, or control panel assemblers. Power down and de-energize any board or enclosure before installing or replacing standoffs. Use a nut driver or open-end wrench sized to 0.25 inch across flats to seat the standoff without overtightening, which can crack the PCB substrate. Follow applicable NEC guidelines when installing standoffs inside electrical enclosures.
