Products Description
The Knurled Hexagon Socket Hexagon Screw is a novelty in the field of fastening, an ideal solution for applications where quick and reliable assembly and disassembly is required without losing the screws. The screw has a patented knurl design for improved grip and ease of installation by hand. Flanges have a hexagonal head that allows them to be fastened by the use of a hex wrench, which also allows maximum torque to be applied. For applications such as panels and enclosures, the screw is functional and tough enough to serve a wide range of industries.

Products Process
Material Selection: The first is material selection, you will want to choose a high-strength stainless steel and/or carbon steel for durability and corrosion resistance.
Cold Heading: This is where the screw first goes through a cold heading process, forming the head and shaft at the same time for increased strength.
Knurling: Knurling, where a small pattern is rolled onto the head for better grip when handling manually.
Hex Socket Machining: Hex Socket The hex socket is machined in a precise manner into the head of the screw to enable firm engagement with hex drivers.
Rolling the Threads: The tool rolls threads onto the shaft, increasing strength and rolling creates a clean surface for easy installation.
Captive Design: A type of design in which to screw up the hole fixed that is done so when we unscrew, it can not lose this screw from panel.
Surface Treatment: A protective coating, such as zinc plating or passivation, is applied to enhance corrosion resistance and improve aesthetics.
Quality Control: Comprehensive testing is performed to ensure dimensional accuracy, tensile strength, and overall quality.
Products Application
Electronics Enclosures: Ideal for securing panels in electronic devices where accessibility is essential.
Automotive Industry: Used in vehicle assembly for securing panels and components without the risk of losing screws.
Manufacturing Equipment: Commonly found in machinery where frequent maintenance requires easy access to internal components.
Furniture Assembly: Suitable for modular furniture designs that require stable yet removable connections.
Aerospace: Employed in aircraft components where lightweight and secure fastening solutions are critical.
FAQ
Q1: What is the advantage of a captive panel screw?
A1: A captive panel screw remains attached to the panel even when unscrewed, reducing the risk of loss and ensuring ease of access during maintenance.
Q2: How do I determine the right length and diameter for my project?
A2: The appropriate size depends on the thickness of the materials being fastened. We offer customization options to meet your specific requirements.
Q3: What tools do I need for installation?
A3: A hex key or Allen wrench compatible with the hex socket is required for installation, ensuring secure engagement.
Q4: Are these screws resistant to corrosion?
A4: Yes, when made from stainless steel or treated with protective coatings, these screws are highly resistant to corrosion, making them suitable for harsh environments.
Q5: Can these screws be reused?
A5: Yes, captive panel screws can typically be reused if they are not stripped or damaged during removal.
