Acetal Machine Screw, Pan Head, Phillips Drive, #4-40, 5/16" Length (Pack of 100) Feature

  • Machine Screws are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes
  • Acetal is suitable where hardness and water resistance are important considerations
  • Pan head allows for higher tightening torques
  • Phillips drive is designed to cam out under too much torque
  • Coarse threads are better for brittle materials, and will assemble and disassemble more quickly than fine threads
Machine Screws, also referred to as Machine Bolts, are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes. They come in a variety of head types and drive styles, but are generally available in smaller sizes.

Acetal resins are characterized by their strength, stiffness, and hardness, and are stable over a wide range of temperatures, humidity, environments, and stress. Acetal has a low coefficient of friction, and absorbs little water, minimizing the effect of moisture on its physical properties. Acetal resists neutral oils, grease, petroleum-based fuels, many organic solvents, alkalis, oxidizing agents and acids, both organic and inorganic. Compared to Nylon 6/6, Acetal is harder and has better water resistance, but lower impact strength and abrasion resistance. Acetal is translucent off white in color.

Pan head fasteners have a low, large cylindrical head with a high rounded top edge for higher tightening torques - these fasteners are often recommended to replace older head styles such as round, binding, or truss-head where possible. The Phillips drive style was originally designed so that the driver would slip out under extreme torque, preventing over-tightening and damage to the fastener or the material.

A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter, followed by the threads per inch, which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Coarse threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings.

Nylon 6/6 Machine Screw, Fillister Head, Phillips Drive, M5-0.8, 15mm Length (Pack of 100) Feature

  • Machine Screws are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes
  • Nylon 6/6 is suitable where non-conductivity, corrosion resistance, and cost are important considerations
  • Fillister head for high torque and good hold-down strength
  • Phillips drive is designed to cam out under too much torque
  • Coarse threads are better for brittle materials, and will assemble and disassemble more quickly than fine threads
Machine Screws, also referred to as Machine Bolts, are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes. They come in a variety of head types and drive styles, but are generally available in smaller sizes.

Nylon 6/6 is a general purpose thermoplastic with outstanding resistance to organic chemicals, acids and alkalis. Nylon wears well against other surfaces; it is readily machinable and may be milled, turned and cut with conventional machine tools. It does exhibit some dimensional swelling in wet applications which should be taken into account with its use. Tensile strength of this material is 12,000 psi (pounds per square inch).

Fillister head fasteners are considered an improvement over round head equivalents - the smaller head creates more downward pressure for a given torque level and the thicker head plus deeper drive slot allows higher torque levels to be generated. The Phillips drive style was originally designed so that the driver would slip out under extreme torque, preventing over-tightening and damage to the fastener or the material.

A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter (in millimeters), followed by the thread pitch (millimeters per thread), which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Coarse threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings.

Machine Screws, also referred to as Machine Bolts, are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes. They come in a variety of head types and drive styles, but are generally available in smaller sizes.

Polyvinylchloride, or PVC, exhibits little or no water absorption, absorbing 0.05% of its weight after 24 hours of exposure to water. Because it is chlorinated, PVC also possesses natural flame retardant qualities. PVC has one of the highest dielectric strengths of plastics, at 1413 volts per millimeter, making it an excellent insulator. PVC possesses average to above average strength compared to other plastics, with a tensile strength of 7450 psi (pounds per square inch) and an impact strength of 5 force pounds (Izod Impact Scale). The primary drawback of PVC is its low melting point temperature of 140 degrees Fahrenheit.

Flat head fasteners are designed to fit flush to the surface when used with countersunk holes. Length is measured from the top of the head. Common applications for slotted screws include woodworking, although the drive style is not designed to be used with power drivers.

Machine Screws, also referred to as Machine Bolts, are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes. They come in a variety of head types and drive styles, but are generally available in smaller sizes.

Stainless steels are used for their corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, scaling resistance, and low-temperature toughness. These properties account for their extremely wide use in practically every industry. Austenitic Stainless Steels are alloys of iron and carbon that contain between 16% and 30% Chromium, a maximum of 0.15% carbon, along with Nickel (or Manganese), and other alloying elements. The chromium, which helps develop a passive surface oxide film, provides corrosion resistance in stainless steels. Austenitic Stainless Steels are designated by a 3 digit SAE Stainless Steel Grade beginning with the number 3 (e.g. 304, 316).

Stainless Steel 303 contains 0.15% carbon, along with traces of sulfur and phosphorus which makes this a free machining alloy. Free machining refers to the ability to cut and finish the materials without heavy wear on the machining tools. Tensile Strength is 35000 psi (pounds per square inch). Passivation helps prevent corrosion in certain stainless steels by removing surface impurities that can be caused by machining or forming processes. These impurities block the normally occurring formation of a protective oxide coating on the steel.

Fillister head for high torque and good hold-down strength

A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter (in millimeters), followed by the thread pitch (millimeters per thread), which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Fine threads are preferable when working with harder materials or when threading into a thin material.

Machine Screws, also referred to as Machine Bolts, are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes. They come in a variety of head types and drive styles, but are generally available in smaller sizes.

PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) has similar properties to Teflon, including an extremely low coefficient of friction (it doesn't stick to other materials and it resists surface wear). PTFE also exhibits a useful service life from below -100 degrees Fahrenheit, to temperatures of over 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Its resistance to solvents is also excellent throughout a wide range of temperatures. PTFE has a high dielectric strength (600 volts/millimeter) which makes it a good insulator. PTFE is also very non-hydroscopic, or water resistant, absorbing less than 0.01% of its weight if exposed to water for a 24 hour period. PTFE has below average tensile strength, at 3000 psi (pounds per square inch).

Pan head fasteners have a low, large cylindrical head with a high rounded top edge for higher tightening torques - these fasteners are often recommended to replace older head styles such as round, binding, or truss-head where possible.
