Male and female spacers and standoffs are mechanical components designed to create space and separation between objects while providing structural support. A male spacer or standoff typically has threads on one end, allowing it to be inserted through a hole and secured by threading into another object, effectively maintaining a fixed distance between them. On the other hand, female spacers have threads on both ends, accommodating screws or bolts to secure components while maintaining a set distance.
These components play crucial roles in applications like electronics, ensuring alignment, preventing short circuits, offering adjustability, and providing support, all while maintaining a specified separation between objects. In essence, they are essential tools for maintaining functionality, organization, and safety in various engineering and electronic systems.
