About Electronic Fasteners and Hardware
Electronic fasteners and hardware are small components for spacing or positioning electronic devices on printed circuit boards (PCB). There are many different types of electronic fasteners and hardware. Examples include embedded hardware, swage spacers, male/male standoffs, and captive panel screws. Embedded hardware is machine-to-machine hardware that is already inside a system. A swage spacer utilizes an operation whereby a reduced diameter of a fastener is deformed to secure it to a panel. A male/male standoff is a tubular device, usually threaded, for spacing or stacking components. A captive screw is a threaded screw which is held captive to a panel. When this electronic fastener is disengaged from its main nut, it remains fixed to the panel. Other electronic fasteners and hardware are also commonly available.
