Description
Monster Overview
Designed to bite firmly into ABS, polycarbonate, nylon, acetal and other high-performance thermoplastics, these 1/4″-10 Unslotted Hex-Washer Plastite-Alternative Screws feature the proven PT 48-2 thread profile for radial compression and high strip-out resistance without the need for metal inserts. The indented external-hex head with integral washer spreads load while keeping a low drive height, and an unslotted crown seals the joint against dust and liquids.
Monster Features
- Thread Profile: PT 48-2 (Plastite-alt.) — deep flank angle & wide pitch cut clean threads in amorphous and semi-crystalline plastics.
- Head / Drive: Indented 1/4″ hex-washer (3/8″ wrench), solid crown — quick power-driver installation; no slot to trap debris.
- Material: 18-8 (A2) stainless steel, passivated for maximum corrosion resistance in outdoor and food-grade assemblies.
- Factory Wax-Lubed: PTFE-free dry wax delivers consistent low drive torque and repeatable seating without thread galling.
- Full Thread — No Pilot Tap Needed: drive directly into a molded or drilled pilot hole (≈75 % diameter of major thread).
- Standards: IFI-308 • DIN 7500 variant • RoHS & REACH compliant.
