Plastic weighs less than metal and is more resistant to corrosion which is great news for many manufacturers. With the thousands of different polymers available today, plastics continue to open up a world of design opportunities, yet present some unique fastening problems. Each type of plastic has its own set of performance issues, such as ductility, thermal expansion and clamp retention. Selecting a screw that can best match these requirements is critical to the overall performance of an application.

Screws specially designed for plastics can optimize performance in specific types of materials. By selecting the proper screw you may obtain higher strip-out torque values, increased resistance to loosening, and higher pull-out values. Selection of the optimum screw can also lead to reduced in-place costs through reduced material usage, reduced cycling times, and elimination of inserts and adhesives.

Every thread-forming or thread-cutting application in plastic is unique and with each new opportunity we strongly recommend reviewing your specific application with one of our Applications Engineers. Dependent upon your application parameters any one of the following popular designs is available to you from Acument Global Technologies:

Delta PT® Thread-Forming Screws for Plastic
Duro-PT® Thread-Cutting Screws for Plastic
PLASTITE® Thread-Forming Screws for Plastic
PT® Thread-Forming Screws for Plastic
