Thread forming screw for thermoplastics
Thread forming without chips, no loss of material.
Features
- Collar to support the screw driver and increase the load bearing area.
- Robust screw with large shank diameter to transmit high tightening torques.
- Large overlap between thread flanks and material provides secure hold in mounted condition
- Two-step thread flank design prevents spontaneous loosening
Economic advantages
- No previous thread cutting required.
- Direct mounting without any metal thread inserts.
- Thin boss design can be realized.
- The mounted rs-plast screw resists high stripping forces.
- Short assembly time (cycles) in automatic mounting.
Quality features
- Thread forming without chips, no loss of material.
- Optimized load transmission and minimized relaxation due to large overlap between thread flanks and component.
- The flat thread angle reduces stress in the component.
- Secure hold due to positive fit in the material.
Installation advantages
- Optimized thread pitch for quick mounting.
- Minimized penetrationtorque due to lowmaterial displacement.
- Large overlap of the thread flanks for high overturningtorques.
- Subsequent screw fastening up to 10 times possible.
