Monster Overview:
Replace tapping and fighting rust with bulk #8-16 Phillips Pan Head
PT 48-2 Thread-Forming Screws from Monster Bolts.
The tri-lobular Plastite® profile cold-flows thermoplastic,
forming tough, chip-free internal threads—no debris, no secondary ops.
Precision-machined from corrosion-resistant 18-8 (304) stainless steel,
each screw is passivated to ASTM A967 and factory
wax-lubed for smooth, low-torque seating. Fully threaded screws
ship in sealed master cartons for unbeatable per-unit cost.

- Material & Finish: 18-8 stainless steel, passivated for marine-grade corrosion resistance, dry wax for repeatable clamp load.
