Short Screw

Short screws consist of a shank and a flattened head. The head shape varies, with hex socket or bit-drive shapes being the most common.

Depending on the design, a screw may have a different thread type. The distinguishing feature of this fastener is its shortened length.

Applications

Short screws are used in instrument making, machine tool building, household appliances and electronics. They provide a strong connection of components designed for long-term operation under high mechanical loads.

Features

Short screws are made of carbon steel grades and stainless steel. Screws made of other metals are also available.

Stainless A2 and A4 screws allow connections to be used in conditions of increased humidity and in aggressive chemical environments.

Polyamide screws are used in electronics and instrument making thanks to the dielectric properties of the material.
