Standoffs and Spacers
Standoffs and spacers are fasteners used to connect, position and raise panels and PCB assemblies above other electronic components. Standoffs have a round or hexagonal shape with ends that are either internally threaded (female) or externally threaded (male). Spacers are cylindrical or hexagonal with an unthreaded interior that allows the entire bolt to pass through the center. Cylindrical standoffs and spacers can be easily tightened by hand and hexagonal standoffs are designed to be tightened with a wrench.
Custom Standoffs and Spacers Available in Various Lengths and Sizes, and in Materials Including:
- Nylon: nonconductive, insulative, protects wiring
- Steel: exceptional strength and durability
- Stainless steel: resists chemicals and corrosion, high strength-to-weight ratio
- Brass: corrosion-resistant, conductive, non-magnetic
- Aluminum: strong, lightweight, noncorrosive, non-magnetic, excellent temperature resistance

Spacers are unthreaded fasteners with a cylindrical or hexagonal body. They are offered in 3/16”, 1/4”, 5/16”, 3/8” and 1/2” diameter options in various lengths up to 1”. Our spacers accommodate screws up to size 10.Circuit Board Standoffs and Spacers Considerations for the Right Selection
Custom standoffs and spacers are offered in a wide range of sizes and lengths for electronics applications. There are several factors to consider when selecting your spacers, including:- Thread type (also called gender): standoffs and spacers are offered in female-female, male-female and male-male configurations.
- Shape: cylindrical spacers and standoffs can be tightened by hand, but hexagonal standoffs must be tightened using a wrench
- Body length: this determines the amount of spacing between the PCB assemblies and components
- Body diameter and thread size: to ensure the spacers match your screw thread type and diameter
