Description
Space between components is a design decision, not an accident. A PCB suspended above a chassis, a panel held off a mounting surface, a stack of boards breathing in a tight enclosure, all of it depends on fasteners that hold a precise gap. This 300-piece M3 brass standoff assortment puts the right spacer at your bench for every one of those decisions.
Machined from solid brass, these male-female hex standoffs thread cleanly and resist the corrosion that plagues steel in humid environments. The hex body gives you a firm grip for a driver, while the M3 threads accept standard screws on both ends, making board stacks and panel mounts quick to assemble and easy to adjust.
For electronics work, prototyping, and repair benches, an assortment this complete ends the hunt for a single spacer in a junk drawer. It is the difference between pausing a build and finishing it.
This is not a bag of spacers. It is the scaffolding of every circuit you will ever mount.
In electronics, spacing is engineering. A standoff sets the gap that lets air flow under a board, keeps components from shorting against a chassis, and gives a technician room to reach test points. Brass brings the added benefit of corrosion resistance and clean threads that seat without galling, making assembly and rework pleasant rather than frustrating.

Where It Shines
PCB mounting in enclosures, panel spacing on prototypes, repair bench restocking, and any project where components need a precise, repeatable gap. When the spacing is right, airflow, clearance, and service access all fall into place. When a board sits at the right height above a chassis, airflow, service access, and signal integrity all improve at once.
Why Choose This Over Nylon or Aluminum Spacers?
Nylon spacers are cheap and insulating, but they deform under torque and melt near heat sources. Aluminum is light but soft, and it galls easily when threaded repeatedly. Brass hits the balance: rigid enough for precise spacing, conductive enough for grounding, and with threads that seat smoothly every time. For equipment that gets opened and reworked, like test rigs and hobby electronics, brass standoffs keep their integrity through dozens of assembly cycles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What thread size are these standoffs?
A: All standoffs in the kit are M3 male-female hex spacers, sized for the most common PCB and panel mounting applications.
Q: How many pieces are included?
A: The set contains 300 pieces across a range of common lengths, enough to stock a bench or complete several builds.
Q: Are they corrosion resistant?
A: Yes. The solid brass construction resists rust and corrosion, making them a dependable choice for humid environments.
Q: Can I use them for board stacking?
A: Absolutely. The male-female design stacks boards cleanly, and the hex body holds firm while you torque the outer screws.
Q: What lengths are included?
A: The 300-piece assortment spans the common M3 standoff lengths used in PCB and enclosure work, so you can choose the gap your design needs.
Q: Are these conductive?
A: Brass is conductive, which is often desirable for grounding and shielding connections. For isolated mounts, add a nylon washer where insulation is required.
Q: What screw sizes pair with these?
A: M3 screws on both the male and female ends, which matches the most common board-mounting hardware in electronics and enclosure work.
Q: Are they reusable after disassembly?
A: Yes. The brass threads are durable and re-seat cleanly, so you can assemble, test, adjust, and reassemble without degrading the fastener.
Q: Are the threads consistent across all pieces?
A: Yes. The standoffs are machined to a consistent M3 thread, so they pair reliably with any standard M3 screw in your kit.
Q: Can they support heavier boards or panels?
A: The brass construction provides a firm, rigid mount suitable for standard PCB and panel loads. For very heavy assemblies, choose a thicker standoff or add support.
Q: What lengths come in the assortment?
A: The 300-piece set spans the common M3 standoff lengths used in board mounting and panel spacing, so you can match the spacer to the gap your enclosure requires.
