What is a PLASTITE screw and why does ClickFold recommend it?
PLASTITE screws are self-forming scews that are specifically designed for plastics. The three-lobed design of a PLASTITE screw takes full advantage of the cold flow characteristics of many plastics by allowing plastic material to recover and fill in between the lobes which establishes maximum resistance to vibrational loosening. In addition, the screw’s deep, coarsely spaced threads provide a heavier shear area and deeper thread engagement in the plastic, further enhancing holding capabilities. PLASTITE screws cut assembly time and costs. Exceptional holding power eliminates the need for costly inserts and lockwashers.
