Precision 5mm ID x 10mm OD x 6mm Aluminum Spacer for clean spacing, standoff support, panel mounting, brackets, 3D printer parts, electronics, CNC fixtures, and custom mechanical assemblies.
$0.79
The 5mm ID x 10mm OD x 6mm Aluminum Spacer is a compact round spacer used for spacing, standoff support, alignment, panel separation, bracket mounting, electronics installation, 3D printer parts, CNC fixtures, jigs, and custom mechanical assemblies. With a 5mm inside diameter, 10mm outside diameter, and 6mm height, this spacer is useful when a small, lightweight, and clean-looking separation point is needed between two parts.
Aluminum spacers are commonly used anywhere a fixed gap or controlled clearance is required. They can help separate panels from frames, lift brackets off a surface, space bearings or washers, support electronics plates, align printed parts, or create a clean standoff in a custom project. The 5mm ID x 10mm OD x 6mm Aluminum Spacer is especially useful for builders working with 3D printers, CNC machines, laser-cut panels, metal brackets, wood projects, acrylic parts, and DIY fabrication hardware.
This spacer has a 5mm inside diameter, making it suitable for many M5 screw, bolt, rod, and shaft-style applications where an unthreaded spacer is required. It can be placed between brackets, panels, plates, guards, mounts, fixtures, printed parts, and other hardware to create a controlled 6mm gap. A spacer helps prevent parts from rubbing together, improves clearance, and can make the finished assembly look cleaner and more professional.
The 5mm ID x 10mm OD x 6mm Aluminum Spacer can be used in 3D printer upgrades, printer frame assemblies, CNC accessories, robotics projects, electronics enclosures, lamp bases, display stands, jigs, fixtures, and small machine builds. Because it is aluminum, it offers a good balance of strength, low weight, corrosion resistance, and clean appearance for many indoor workshop and maker applications.
The aluminum body keeps weight low while providing a rigid spacing point. This makes the spacer useful in moving assemblies, small brackets, printer hardware, and projects where heavy steel spacers are not necessary. Aluminum also provides a clean metallic appearance that works well for visible hardware, decorative products, and finished assemblies.
Before installation, confirm that the spacer dimensions match your screw, bolt, rod, or mounting design. The inside diameter, outside diameter, and height all matter. A spacer with the wrong bore may not fit your fastener, while a spacer with the wrong height may create too much or too little clearance. Always test fit before final tightening.
For related assembly hardware, browse the Fasteners category. This spacer can be paired with Metric Socket Head Screws, nuts, washers, brackets, panels, 3D printer hardware, and other fabrication components from dnb3D.
Spacers and standoffs are commonly used to create controlled separation, clearance, and alignment between mechanical parts. For general engineering context on aluminum material properties, see this MatWeb material property reference.

Before installation, confirm that the 5mm ID x 10mm OD x 6mm Aluminum Spacer matches your design. Check the inside diameter, outside diameter, and height before final assembly. The spacer should fit the selected M5 screw, bolt, rod, or mounting hardware without forcing.
When using this spacer between two parts, make sure the screw or bolt is long enough to pass through the spacer and still provide proper thread engagement. A fastener that is too short may not hold securely, while a fastener that is too long may bottom out, interfere with nearby parts, or prevent the assembly from tightening properly.
Use light, controlled tightening. Aluminum spacers are durable for many small hardware applications, but excessive force can deform the spacer, crush 3D printed parts, damage plastic panels, or mark softer materials. Tighten only enough to secure the assembly.
If the spacer is being used against plastic, wood, acrylic, thin sheet metal, or 3D printed parts, a washer may help spread the load and protect the surface. This is especially useful when the assembly will be adjusted, removed, or re-tightened later.
Spacers are often used to create clean, even gaps. Before final tightening, make sure all spacers are seated evenly and that the panel, bracket, or mounted part is square. Uneven tightening can cause twisting, misalignment, or stress in the assembly.
Keep the spacer free from chips, dust, adhesive, paint buildup, and abrasive debris. If used as visible hardware on a lamp, jewelry box, display stand, panel, or finished product, wipe with a soft cloth during final assembly.
If the aluminum spacer contacts painted, polished, acrylic, wood, or delicate surfaces, consider using a washer, gasket, felt pad, or protective layer depending on the application. This can help prevent marking or surface damage during tightening and long-term use.
