Spacer sleeve screwable EB130012178 M5, 20 mm, hexagonal

Screwable spacer sleeve EB130012178 M5, 20 mm, hexagonal is a threaded spacer engineered for M5 connections with a nominal length of 20 mm and a hexagonal external profile. It provides a stable, compact separation between parts in mechanical and electronic assemblies. The component is intended to establish precise distances, maintain alignment and allow secure fastening where a short, screw-compatible spacer is required.

Advantages

The hexagonal profile simplifies installation with standard tools and reduces the risk of rotation during tightening. Threaded engagement for M5 ensures reliable mechanical connection and repeatable positioning. Its 20 mm length offers a compact solution for tight assemblies while preserving clearance and structural stability. The metallic construction provides consistent dimensional stability and durability under normal operating conditions.

Suitable for

• Mounting printed circuit boards and electronic modules with M5 threaded standoffs
• Mechanical assemblies requiring fixed spacing and alignment
• Repair, prototyping and small-batch production where compact spacers are needed

Key specifications

• Thread size: M5
• Nominal length: 20 mm
• External profile: hexagonal
• Function: screwable spacer/standoff for maintaining separation and alignment
• Typical applications: electronics mounting, mechanical spacing, alignment tasks

How to use

Install the spacer sleeve by engaging the internal thread with a matching M5 screw or threaded pin until the desired position is reached. Use a wrench or socket on the hexagonal exterior to hold or rotate the spacer during tightening to prevent loosening. Ensure mating threads are clean and correctly sized before assembly; do not apply excessive torque beyond the screw and material ratings. For stacked or multiple spacers, align threads carefully to avoid cross-threading.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate-sized tools for the hexagonal profile, inspect threads for damage before use, and select screws of compatible length to avoid protrusion into sensitive components. For applications exposed to vibration, consider using thread-locking compounds or lock washers compatible with the assembly materials.
