About Hexagonal Spacer
A brass hex spacer is a hexagonal-shaped, brass-mademechanical component used to create defined spacing, hold PCB assemblies, orseparate components in electronics and machinery. Offering high corrosionresistance, durability, and non-magnetic properties, they are typically foundin male-female (M-F) or female-female (F-F) configurations.
Key Features and Specifications:
- Shape: Hexagonal sides, allowing for easy tightening with a wrench.
- Material: High-grade brass, often nickel-plated for added durability, rust resistance, and a silver aesthetic.
- Dimensions: Available in various lengths (5mm to 80mm+) and thread sizes ranging from M2 to M6, with custom options up to M12.
- Thread Type: Metric (M), BSW, UNC, UNF.
Applications:
- Electronics: Elevating PCBs to prevent overheating by increasing airflow.
- Robotics/DIY: Creating space between motors, chassis, and sensors.
- General Hardware: Used in medical equipment, automotive components, and electrical fittings.
Common Configurations:
- Female-Female (F-F): Both ends are internally threaded.
