Self-locking hexagon socket head cap screw with flange Steel Plain 10007095
Locking socket head cap screws are specialised fasteners equipped with a locking feature to prevent loosening due to vibration or movement. They typically have a hexagonal drive socket and are designed to sit flush with the material they are threaded into, providing a clean, uniform appearance. These screws are commonly used in applications where vibration or dynamic loads are present, such as in automotive engines, machinery, and aerospace assemblies. The locking mechanism ensures the screw remains securely fastened under challenging conditions, preventing mechanical failure and maintaining the assembly's integrity.
When selecting locking socket head cap screws, it is essential to consider the material, which can include steel, stainless steel, and other alloys, to meet specific strength and corrosion resistance requirements. Proper size and thread matching are crucial for fit and performance. The type of locking mechanism, such as a nylon patch, pellet, or adhesive, affects reusability and security level. Ensuring compatibility with industry standards like DIN or ISO impacts the screw's interchangeability and quality assurance.
