Captive Screws - Button Head

Captive Screws are fasteners designed to remain attached to the component they are securing, even when fully loosened, providing convenience, security and ease of use in a variety of applications. They are a popular choice for applications where screws need to be removed frequently or where safety is a concern, as these screws will stay firmly in place and will not loosen from the assembly.

This range of Captive Screws has a button head and a Torx drive. Torx drives provide a positive-engaging, fast-locating technique for transmitting drive torque with less necessary downward pressure. They are an excellent fitting option for panels with non-threaded holes when used in conjunction with our threaded captive washers. They are used to comply with Machinery Detective 2006/42/EC - typically to ISO 14583, which requires fasteners to stay attached to fixed guards or applications when they are removed.

The screws are made from Stainless Steel, which is corrosion resistant and slightly magnetic, and you can find a group of screws with a blackened finish and others without.These screws are commonly used in electronics, industrial machinery, cabinets, panels and medical devices. Please keep in mind that because these screws have a smaller shank diameter, they should not be tightened to the suggested torque for an identical screw with the same thread size.

  • Torx drives provide a positive-engaging, fast-locating technique for transmitting drive torque with less necessary downward pressure.
  • Used to comply with Machinery Detective 2006/42/EC - typically to ISO 14583.
  • Designed to remain attached to the component they are installed in, even when fully loosened.

Captive Screws - Pan Head

This range of Captive Screws have a pan head with two options: one with a Torx drive and one with a Philips drive. On the one hand, Screws with Torx drive provide a positive, quick engagement that transmits torque with less downward pressure. In contrast, screws Philips drive can withstand high torque, making them a good choice for applications requiring a tight fit and making the screw easy to remove, even if it has been driven in tightly. They both offer an excellent fastening appearance, ideal for finished product presentation.

These screws are an ideal fitting solution for panels with non-threaded holes. The M8 sizes have a reduced Torx, while the M3, M4, M5, and M6 sizes have a Philips drive. They are used to comply with the Machinery Detective 2006/42/EC - generally to ISO 14583. Captive Screws are commonly used with Threaded Captive Washers (sold separately).

These screws are made from austenitic Stainless Steel that provides good resistance to corrosion and machinability. The material is a popular choice for construction and automotive applications.

Self -Drilling & Self-Piercing Screws - Pan Head

Self-drilling and self-piercing screws are a type of fastener that combines drilling and fastening operations in a single action, removing the requirement for pre-drilling. They have a pointed head that allows the screw to self-tap into a panel. This reduces the amount of time and physical work necessary for fixing.

Easily driven into the surface with a power drill or screwdriver and provides a strong and secure hold. Ideal for use in applications where a high degree of strength and stability is required, such as in metalworking or construction.

Standoffs

Our range of Standoffs, which are commonly referred to as Hex Spacers or Standoff Pillars, are quick and easy to install thanks to their screw-in design. Our standoffs are available in both a non-undercut and undercut version. Non-undercut spacers offer greater stability, but require a washer for installation. Whereas undercut spacers are much quicker to install, and allow spacers to be stacked and do not require the use of a washer - making them a econonical solution. Our spacer range is also available in self-tapping types for mating with non-threaded fittings.

Our standoff spacers offering includes undercut male to female standoff made from either, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated steel, aluminium or stainless steel, which are self-tapping. Female to female hex spacers made from brass, stainless steel, nickel-plated brass or zinc-plated steel. A self-tapping male to female hexagonal spacer made from nickel-plated hardened steel that's brass coloured. We also offer a round natural Nylon 6/6 push spacer.

  • Screw-in design
  • Excellent electrical conductivity
  • Self-tapping thread
  • Various thread options
  • Suitable for metal sheets, aluminium and plastic.
