Design
Dog Point Tip: The tip of the screw has an unthreaded cylindrical extension, known as a dog point. This extension helps to align the screw in pre-drilled holes, ensuring precise positioning and preventing cross-threading.
The dog point serves as a guide during installation, making it easier to insert the screw into a tapped hole or to align parts that need to be fastened together.
Hex Head: Allows for easy tightening with a wrench or socket, providing high torque application.
Phillips Head: Common for general applications, allowing for use with a Phillips screwdriver.
Available in various other head styles such as slotted, Torx, etc., to suit different applications.
SEMS Assembly
Integrated Washer: The screw is pre-assembled with a washer (or washers) that are permanently attached. This ensures the washer is always in place during installation, improving efficiency and ensuring proper load distribution.
The washers can be flat, split lock, or toothed lock washers, depending on the specific requirements for load distribution, locking, and vibration resistance.
Materials
Steel: Common for general applications due to its strength.
Stainless Steel: Provides excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for outdoor or harsh environments.
Applications
Precision Assembly: Ideal for applications requiring precise alignment of parts, such as in machinery, electronics, and automotive components.
Automotive: Used in securing components where precise positioning is crucial, such as in engine assemblies and body parts.
Electronics: Employed in the assembly of electronic enclosures and components where accurate alignment is necessary.
Industrial Equipment: Used in machinery assembly and maintenance where alignment and load distribution are important.
