I recently purchased a RB-Wav-77 and would like to purchase more hardware (standoffs, screws, nuts, …) that match the hardware that came with the board.
Can anybody tell me the specs for the hardware that comes with the RB-Wav-77?
Thank you!
Hi John,
The board is not delivered with any hardware as far as we know.
It will clip on the I/O port of the Raspberry Pi board which is usually enough to held it in place.
Hmmm,
The board I received came with two standoffs, screws and nuts to secure the board to the side of the Pi opposite the GPIO connectors.
And, the “What’s Included” section of the product web page robotshop.com/en/mc33886-raspberry-pi-motor-driver-board-raspberry-pi.html explicitly states:
]RPi screws pack (2pcs) x 1/:m]
In the image on the same page you can just make out the standoff hardware.
You are right, the hardware seems to be included.
Those items are not sold individually as they are provided by the manufacturer of the board.
Taking some measurements with a caliper give us a length of 16mm look to be M1.5 as the thread.
What are you need for additional hardware ?
The easiest might be to replace everything by 4-40 or M3 which are more standard.
Eric,
Thanks for following up. Good point about just replacing all the hardware.
We just need to mount the Pi to an Iron Man-2 chassis so we will need consistent hardware for securing the motor driver board and mounting the Pi.

John,
We think a 16mm M3 or 5/8" 4-40 would work for the section between the Raspberry and the HAT.
Under the board you can use any size to lift it from the body.
Unfortunately, those are not sizes we have available
