Discover more about the Imperial Torx Shoulder Screws range.
Imperial Torx Shoulder Screws, known for their high-precision fastening capabilities, are categorised under precision screws. What sets them apart is their Torx drive, a six-point star-shaped drive that provides increased torque transmission and avoids the issue of driver slippage - a valuable asset in high-torque applications. With an unthreaded 'shoulder' between the head and thread, these screws act as dowels for assemblies, enabling precise rotational or sliding movements within the assembled parts, a critical feature in precision engineering.
How Imperial Torx Shoulder Screws Work
Imperial Torx Shoulder Screws work by engaging their threads with a complementary thread either within an imperial nut or pre-tapped hole. The distinctive unthreaded 'shoulder' of the screw acts as a fulcrum or axis, permitting precision movements of components around it. This design function, coupled with the high torque transmission offered by the Torx drive, provides a fastening solution that excels in applications demanding both secure fastening and fine-tuned mechanical articulation.
What Material Imperial Torx Shoulder Screws Are Made From
Our Imperial Torx Shoulder Screws are crafted from A2 Stainless Steel for standard applications requiring good corrosion resistance and durability. For applications exposed to harsher environmental conditions, such as marine or chemical industries, we offer A4 Marine Grade Stainless Steel variants, known for their superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. For added aesthetic appeal or further protection, our AccuBlack finish is available, enhancing both the visual and functional aspects of the screw.
What Size and Type Imperial Torx Shoulder Screws Are Available
With a range spanning from the smaller 4-40 thread size, ideal for intricate precision applications, to the more substantial 10-32 thread size, suited for tasks requiring higher load-bearing capacity we provide Imperial Torx Shoulder Screws to cater to a vast spectrum of engineering demands. Our range also consists of shoulder diameters ranging between 1/8 and 1/4 inch and shoulder lengths from 1/8 inch to 1 inch.
