Description

Monster Overview:
Speed up plastic assembly lines with #8-16 Slotted Indent Hex-Washer Head PT 48-2 Thread-Forming Screws. The forged top slot lets technicians start or finish with a flat-blade driver when a socket can’t reach, while the captive washer hex head installs fast with a ¼″ nut-runner. Plastite-alternative tri-lobular threads cold-flow thermoplastic, carving chip-free internal threads—no taps, no cleanup. Heat-treated carbon-steel blanks receive a bright-zinc plate, are hydrogen-relief baked, then factory wax-lubed for consistently low drive torque. Bulk master cartons keep your per-unit cost razor-low.
