Hex spacers are used to precisely position fasteners like screws & bolts and increase the distance between components being fastened. They allow the fastener to be properly torqued by acting as a clearance gap between the fastener head & the surface being driven into and not allowing the fastener to be driven all the way in. Raptor Supplies offers hex spacers from brands like Morse Drum, Grainger and Spears Valves for use in power plants and the chemical & electronics industries. They feature a hexagonal profile with external flats for a firm grip using a wrench to hold them in place while assembling & applying torque.
Hex spacers are similar to hex standoffs. But unlike spacers, standoffs always include a threaded shaft or hole. Standoffs also come in diverse gender configurations like male-male, female-female & male-female. Spacers can act as female-female standoffs if they have threading.
Spacers have a design containing a length of tube for inserting a fastener. Therefore, a short spacer may look like a thick washer. Washers are sometimes used in place of small spacers.
Thread fit grades or classes indicate the degree of looseness or tightness of mating threads. The higher the class number, the tighter the fit of the mated components. Lower thread fit grades / classes are suitable for applications requiring quick assembly & disassembly. Higher thread classes are ideal for close tolerances, safety & strength.
Yes, hex spacers feature durable threads for installation & removal multiple times.
