Description
Monster Overview:
Countersink thin plastic panels the right way with
bulk #8-16 Phillips Flat-Undercut Head PT 48-2 Thread-Forming Screws from Monster Bolts.
The shortened 82° undercut head lets a full #8 head seat flush where standard flat heads bottom-out, while the
tri-lobular Plastite® flank cold-flows thermoplastic to create chip-free internal threads—no taps, no debris.
Machined from corrosion-proof 18-8 (304) stainless steel, every screw is
passivated to ASTM A967 and factory wax-lubed for smooth, low-torque seating.
Master cartons keep per-unit cost razor-low for high-volume lines.
