Spacers, standoffs and sleeves for precise mounting requirements
Whether electrically insulating, mechanically stabilizing, or as a hybrid solution: Our spacers, standoffs and sleeves offer maximum variety in materials, dimensions, threads and designs. Choose from metal, plastic or combinations of both materials – for optimum function, exact positioning and reliable distance in electromechanical applications, printed circuit board assemblies and housing constructions. We also implement special dimensions and individual requirements precisely for you.
