The nylon hex standoff has one male threaded end and one female threaded end, and has UNC threads. Nylon provides resistance to abrasion, corrosion, and many chemicals and solvents. The material is a strong yet lightweight plastic and is nonconductive. Nylon can either absorb or lose moisture, which may alter its dimensions and mechanical properties.Standoffs are threaded fasteners that separate, space, or connect components within a system to ensure proper placement. They are available in round, hex, and square shapes. The flat sides of the hex and square standoffs can be gripped with a wrench or pliers to hold or tighten. Panel standoffs provide a decorative or architectural mounting option for glass or display panels and are available in configurations that mount either through or around a panel.
