Description

Monster Overview:
Countersink plastic panels with ease using bulk 1/4"-10 Phillips Flat Head PT 48-2 Thread-Forming Screws from Monster Bolts. The 82° flat head leaves a flush, snag-free surface, while the tri-lobular Plastite® flank cold-flows thermoplastic to create high-holding, chip-free threads—no tapping, no debris. Each screw is heat-treated carbon steel, bright zinc electro-plated then baked to eliminate hydrogen embrittlement, and factory wax-coated for consistently low seating torque. Master cartons drive per-unit cost down for volume production.
Monster Features:
- Flush 82° Flat Head: Ideal for plastic housings, access panels, and trim where a smooth surface matters.
- Thread-Forming Geometry: PT 48-2 flank maximises pull-out resistance and minimises strip-out in ABS, nylon, PC & more.
- Drive: Phillips #3 cross recess—compatible with manual, pneumatic, and automated drivers.
- Material & Finish: Heat-treated carbon steel, bright zinc plated, baked, then dry-waxed for smooth, repeatable seating.
