3mm x 20mm Torx Pan PT45 Screw for Hard Plastics | Bright Zinc Plated Steel
Offering a thread-forming solution for engineering plastics used in manufactured assemblies, this 3mm x 20mm PT45 Screw combines a Pan head with a T8 Torx recess. The Bright Zinc Plated Steel fastener uses a shorter 45° thread and trilobular body to suit compatible hard plastics and reinforced materials.
What Are Torx Pan PT45 Screws?
Torx Pan PT45 Screws are thread-forming fasteners developed for harder plastics. Their 45° trilobular thread has shorter flanks than PT30 screws and is better suited to materials such as polycarbonate and glass-reinforced plastics. The Torx drive offers high contact area for efficient torque transfer.
Common Applications
- Production Assemblies: Provides a high-contact Torx drive format for repeatable fastening into hard-plastic components.
- Electrical Enclosures: Secures hard-plastic covers, panels and housings used in electrical and control equipment.
- Industrial Equipment: Fastens hard-plastic guards, covers and instrument housings on machinery and control equipment.
- Control Equipment: Fastens hard-plastic panels and housings used around sensors, switches and control systems.
