Electronics Production / Materials Engineering Supply Chain Standoffs

KEYSTONE series of threaded standoffs are designed and packaged for use on printed circuit boards (pcb) in the same manner as other surface mount components. Manufactured from steel with a tin plate, devices can be added to pcb using the same SMT equipment used to populate the board, reducing scrap and handling time while minimizing damage to a pcb that may occur while using traditional mounting products ensuring easy reflow soldering for reliable solder joints. Devices are available in 2-56, 4-40 and 6-32 threads in lengths from 1/16” up to 3/8” and are supplied on tape and reel with Kapton tape on top surface for easy pickup. Devices can be used with most vacuum and mechanical pick-and-place assembly systems.  http://www.emx.ca
