Plastite tri-lobular thread rolling screws are designed for fastening in a wide range of thermoplastics.
The 60o profile on the Type 60-1 screw penetrates deeply into the work piece, absorbing higher torques without stripping and resisting pullout forces.
As threads are formed, the plastic material recovers and fills in around the tri-lobular threads, providing resistance to loosening and assuring a secure assembly. | |

The unique "tri-lobular" shape of the Taptite screw roll forms a mating thread in an unthreaded pilot hole.
The threads are work hardened as they are formed, providing a strong joint or assembly.
By elastic recovery, the metal fills in behind the triangular lobes to provide maximum contact and a secure assembly.
The tri-lobular shape of the screw shank: • Reduces friction during driving to assure low driving torque • Generates a prevailing torque that exceeds the level of a locking screw | |
