Male Female Standoff Steel Zinc Plated Blue Nylon Patch

Male-female standoff contains the external thread part and the internal thread part. Male-female standoff usually made of steel or aluminum or brass etc. This part mostly used on electronics. Zinc coatings prevent oxidation of the protected metal by forming a barrier and by acting as a sacrificial anode if this barrier is damaged. Zinc oxide is a fine white dust that (in contrast to iron oxide) does not cause a breakdown of the substrate’s surface integrity as it is formed. Indeed, the zinc oxide, if undisturbed, can act as a barrier to further oxidation, in a way similar to the protection afforded to aluminum and stainless steels by their oxide layers. The majority of hardware parts are zinc-plated, rather than cadmium-plated. Ever Hardware provides custom-made fasteners and customizable packaging.

Nylon patch is a pre-applied thread locking coating (typically Nylon), which is fused to internal or external threads of a fastener. Nylon patch is dry to the touch and ready for use right out of the box. Unlike reactive thread lockers, the nylon patch performs immediately upon assembly with no curing time required. When assembled with a mating part, the nylon patch is compressed. The engineered plastic (typically a Nylon Patch) resists this compression and acts as a wedge, increasing the metal to metal contact 180° opposite the material. This mechanical force creates a strong, yet fully adjustable lock which will not weaken, even under extreme vibration. Nylon patch screw is commonly known as a prevailing torque type self-locking fastener.
