Miniature Press-Fit Threaded Standoffs with Open End
Designed to fit in the limited space of compact electronics, such as laptops and hand-held devices, these standoffs have a recess under the head that clinches a panel while splines on the head bite in for an extra-strong hold. The open end creates a through hole. Standoffs have excellent wear resistance and may be mildly magnetic. Use a lever press to install.

Metric 18-8 Stainless Steel Coupling Nuts
Made from 18-8 stainless steel, these metric coupling nuts have good chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic. Also known as extension nuts, use them to connect and extend threaded rods.
Coupling nuts with a black-oxide finish have a dark surface color.

Metric Low-Strength Steel Coupling Nuts
Often referred to as extension nuts, use these to connect and extend threaded rods. They're about half the strength of medium-strength steel coupling nuts for use in light duty fastening applications.
Zinc-plated steel coupling nuts resist corrosion in wet environments.
Black-oxide steel coupling nuts have a dark surface color and are mildly corrosion resistant in dry environments.
