Spacers are mechanical components used extensively in many industries. They are unthreaded pieces of tubing designed to provide support and spacing between two or more objects, which helps reduce stress and strain on the components. Spacers typically allow the bolt to pass entirely through it and are round since it cannot be tightened itself. This type of product is used in many applications such as:
- Aerospace
- Automotive
- Medical Devices
- Heavy Machinery
- Power Generation Systems
Located in Canton, MA, Electronic Fasteners has a wide range of spacer products to meet these diverse industry specifications and meet their rigorous demands.
First and foremost the quality of the spacer is an essential feature to consider. It needs to be able to withstand the intended load and environment in which it will be used in. Material selection depends on temperature, stress, strain, vibration, and other factors that can impact the component’s lifespan. It is crucial to evaluate the dimensions and tolerances that are required for the application. These components come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and materials, so finding one that fits the application can be tricky.
