Frequently Asked Questions
Does this assembly include an LED?
Not included. This is the mounting hardware assembly only, designed to hold any standard 5mm through-hole LED.
What size mounting hole is required for panel installation?
The threaded barrel fits an 8 mm (5/16-inch) panel mounting hole and clamps firmly using the included lock washer and hex nut.
Why buy individual mounting hardware from PartsMine?
Buying individual hardware units lets you source the exact count required for a build without purchasing oversized multipacks of unused parts. Every order ships for an $8 flat rate, standard shipping is free on orders over $28, and orders leave our Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
A bright indicator deserves better than a raw drilled hole, and a clean gold bezel turns a simple pilot light into a finished piece of gear.
