PC Socket Head Cap Screw
PC socket head cap screw is a high-performance engineering plastic fastener made from polycarbonate (PC), designed for applications requiring high impact resistance, electrical insulation, transparency options, and lightweight structural fastening. The PC socket head cap screw features a cylindrical head with an internal hex (Allen) drive, enabling high torque installation and stable fastening performance in precision assemblies.
The PC socket head cap screw is widely used in electronics, optical equipment, automotive interior systems, transparent housings, and industrial plastic structures where metal fasteners may cause corrosion, conductivity, or weight issues.
Product Overview
The PC socket head cap screw is engineered for compact, high-strength plastic fastening applications. Its internal hex drive allows precise torque control using Allen keys, making it suitable for automated assembly and precision engineering environments.
This PC socket head cap screw is commonly used in systems requiring insulation, corrosion resistance, and lightweight design. Polycarbonate material provides significantly higher impact resistance than PP and PVC, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications.
As a reliable industrial plastic fastener, it is widely applied in OEM manufacturing and modern engineering systems.
