The BosScrew pressure flank feature: • Interlocks with the plastic • Eliminates need to add a flat washer • Eliminates the need for metal inserts • Allows for less thread engagement • Utilizes standard clearance hole diameters • Allows for increased clamp load at assembly • No need to add a spring component to the joint | |

| | .jpg) | Hi-Lo®
These fasteners have a double lead high and low thread form that increases performance in a broad range of low density materials such as plastic, wood masonite and particle board. The high thread is sharper than a conventional thread, having a 30° included angle as compared to the conventional 60o included angle. the low thread has the 60o included angle and a height that is 40-50% of the high thread height.
As more material remains between the threads, the Hi-Lo absorbs more torque without stripping. With the dramatic increase in the safe operating range (drive vs. strip torque), the Hi-Lo can be driven easily and consistently without stripping problems and without constant fine tuning of power drivers. | |

| | .jpg) | Hi-Lo® Plus
Both the high and low threads have a sharper (30°) included angle than conventional threads and incorporate a 45° angle step on the trailing flank of the threads. These slim threads penetrate deeply without weakening the material through stress-caused fracturing.
In forming mating threads in the work piece, the unique Hi-Lo Plus screw accommodates the displaced material between the widely spaced high threads, actually increasing thread engagement while minimizing outward pressure.
The alternating high and low threads effectively engages in a wide range of low density materials. The versatility of the Hi-Lo Plus fastener allows you to standardize more applications, specifying the Hi-Lo Plus in soft or hard plastics, die cast metals, particle board and wood.
The heads on Hi-Lo Plus fasteners are made to standard ANSI/ASTM dimensions | |

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. | |
