Description

Monster Overview:
Secure delicate plastic parts with bulk #5-20 × 3⁄8″ Phillips Pan Head
PT 48-2 Thread-Forming Screws from Monster Bolts.
The tri-lobular Plastite® profile cold-flows thermoplastic,
producing strong, chip-free threads—no taps, no debris.
Heat-treated carbon-steel blanks receive a deep black-oxide conversion
finish for low-glare corrosion protection, then a factory
wax coat for ultra-low seating torque. Master cartons drive
the per-unit cost down for high-volume lines.
Monster Features:
- Thread-Forming Geometry: PT 48-2 flank maximises pull-out strength and resists strip-out in ABS, nylon, polycarbonate & more.
- Drive: Phillips #1 cross recess—ideal for precision manual or automated drivers.
- Head Style: Low-profile pan head spreads load without countersinking—perfect for thin plastic covers.
- Material & Finish: Heat-treated carbon steel, black oxide, dry-to-touch wax for smooth, repeatable seating.
- Bulk Packaging: Supplied in sealed master cartons—ready for electronics, medical and consumer-goods production.
