Southco Captive Screws F5-M4-P8

The F5-M4-P8 captive screw from bisco industries is designed for use in applications requiring a flush fastening solution. It features a shell made of passivated 303 stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. The screw itself is available in both slotted and Phillips head styles, with the slotted version also made from passivated 303 stainless steel, while the Phillips head is constructed from passivated 430 stainless steel. This captive screw is suitable for installation in materials such as aluminum or low carbon steels that are 1/4 hard or softer. It allows for a total movement of 0.5 mm (0.02 inches) when floating, which can accommodate slight variations in panel thickness. The product is shipped fully assembled, simplifying the installation process. Engineers should consider the F5-M4-P8 captive screw for projects that require reliable, flush fastening in compatible materials, particularly where ease of installation and corrosion resistance are priorities.
