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.

Please Note: These screws have a smaller shank diameter and should not be tightened to the recommended torque for an equivalent screw of the displayed thread size.
