PCB Spacers

 (70 product groups)

What are PCB Spacers used for?

PCB Spacers or PCB standoffs as they are commonly known, are designed to mount a printed circuit board (PCB) in PCB assemblies, such as computers and are essential in securing boards tightly to the chosen device.

What is the difference between spacers and standoffs?

The main difference between a PCB standoff and a spacer is that a standoff is threaded on both ends while a spacer is typically unthreaded with an inside clearance hole. A standoff is used to create space between a printed circuit board and another surface, while a spacer is used to create space between two objects.

Both PCB standoffs and spacers can be made from various materials such as plastic, metal or nylon, and come in different shapes and sizes to fit various application requirements.

Types of PCB Spacers & Standoffs in our range:

To give you an idea of the breadth of our range, we stock the following – threaded spacers, nylon PCB spacers, plastic PCB standoffsPCB standoff pillars and many more. Mounting type is a key element to consider too so we stock mounting spacers with various mounting options such as non-threaded, reverse locking, and double-sided and of course, choosing from mounting types A and B is taken care of too.

The materials and sizes in our selection vary, to ensure we have the right spacers for your projects including plastic spacersnylon spacers and many more.

We have put together A Guide to PCB Spacers and A Guide to PCB Standoffs over on our Knowledge Centre because our range is quite large and so there are many types and styles to consider when ensuring the correct standoffs and spacers for your applications.

PCB Support Pillars - Rivet Locking/Stud

Designed to mount easily on chassis with plastic SR snap rivet. Allows mounting to a range of panel thicknesses, up to .341” thick. Button head on rivet for minimal protrusion on chassis underside

PCB Support Pillars - Rivet Locking/Two-Prong

These innovative spacers are mounted to the panel with a rivet that is designed into the part. As you push the head of the spacer down, the legs expand locking it into place. They are available in 13 metric spacer lengths in a UL94 V-2 rated nylon.

PCB Support Pillars - Snap-In/Anti-Rotation/No Nose

These are edge locking supports that require no hole in the top board. They have an integrated locking pin on the bottom to prevent rotation. The UBM grips the PC Board on the side and the UBMC grips the board and is easily released. They have a wide base that minimizes rocking.

PCB Support Pillars - Stacking

These spacers snap together on top of each other to stack any number of boards. Item MB-1-156 Can top off the stack

PCB Support Pillars - Teardrop Snap-Lock/Bayonet Nose Snap-Lock
