8.0mm Steel Round Captive Panel Screw - Type 2

Product Description

Captive Panel Screws are designed to remain attached even if unscrewed when used with a captive panel retainer. Type 2 captive panel screws, like other captive panel screw types, are most commonly used on control panel doors to keep the door screwed shut during normal operating conditions. When access is needed, unthreading the screws allows for the door to be open, while the captive panel screw's retainer keeps the screw attached to the door. A perfect solution to prevent a lost screw from becoming lost during a field repair or creating a safety hazard. The round shape provide a nice finished look. Steel is inexpensive, easy to achieve finer surface quality requirements and provides relatively high strength properties. Multiple plating options are available to increase the material's corrosion resistance and alter its appearance.
