Product overviewOverview

The arrangement suits equipment serviced often. Repeated assembly wears the thread of a normal screw; here the base carries the thread, and a worn base can be replaced. Cold-flow requirements match those of clinching nuts, so hole size and panel thickness must be respected.

Material: Carbon Steel / Stainless Steel. It is pressed into a prepared hole from one side.

Key featuresFeatures

Thread size and length made to panel thickness and available space.
Spring-loaded captive versions lift the screw when the cover is released.
Zinc-plated steel or stainless; black oxide or PVD for visible parts.
Screw and base are one part, so hardware stays with the panel during service.

Typical applicationsApplications

Industrial access doors
Telecom rack front and rear panels
Instrument housings

Selection notesSelection

For frequent service, specify the spring-loaded captive type so the screw retracts clear of the panel.

Manufacturing and inspection

Screw-to-base coaxiality and perpendicularity are sampled.Alternative materials and finishes can be quoted side by side during sampling, so cost and corrosion resistance can be traded off explicitly.
