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.

Set Screws - Metal Hex Socket Head with Cup Point

These self-tapping screws with metal hex socket heads and cup points are used to join two or more pieces of material. They are distinguished by their hexagonal head, which can be turned with a hex socket wrench, and their cup-shaped point, which burrows into the material being fastened to prevent the screw from loosening.

The cup point design offers a strong and sturdy attachment by giving a sharp point that bites into the materials. Their self-tapping function removes the need for pre-drilling or tapping, saving time and effort during installation. They have a tensile strength class of 5.8 (500 N/mm2).

A hex socket wrench is required for installation and removal. This is especially useful in applications where screws must be accessible or removed frequently. Used in machine construction, automobile production, and medical device applications.

Set Screws - Plastic Hex Socket

Set Screws with Plastic Hex Socket Heads are designed to secure objects in place by creating a tight and reliable connection. They are frequently used for applications requiring high torque or the screw to be recessed from the object's surface being secured.

It has outstanding strength and corrosion resistance and is lightweight and electrically insulated due to its composition. It has a comfortable grip that allows for simple installation and removal using a hex key or Allen wrench. Used in electrical applications like circuit boards, connectors, and heat sinks, as well as in manufacturing and the automobile industry.

Set Screws - Plastic Slotted

Set Screws, commonly known as a Plastic Grub Screw, are used to secure objects by applying pressure or friction with or against another object, like fixing a pulley or a gear to a shaft.

Our Slotted Screw offer is made from Natural Nylon 6/6, and available in a wide range of thread size, thread lengths and slot sizes. Plastic Set Screws are ideal when the screw head should sit proud of the work-piece in application.

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.
