PlasTORX® overmolding screws

PlasTORX^® overmolding screws are an excellent choice for applications in which the screw has to be molded into plastic, offering a reliable alternative to other fasteners assemblies. PlasTORX^® screws provide exceptionally high resistance to rotation and pull-out, ensuring a secure fit even in thermoplastics susceptible to cracking or breaking.

As a proven solution in insert molding applications, PlasTORX^® screws are widely used in industries such as electronics, automotive, and other sectors where insert molding is demanded.

PlasTORX^® overmolding screws are designed to be molded directly into plastic applications, which increases assembly efficiency. The screw is inserted easily into the mold, plastic flows through the hex-lobular TORX^® configuration providing maximum resistance to rotation and pull-out.

• Hex-lobular TORX^® configuration provides deep lobe engagement, resulting in:

  • Increased torsional resistance for greater durability.

  • Improved pull-out resistance, ensuring a secure fit.

  • Reduced stress risers, minimizing the chance of damage to the material.

• Ideal for use in materials prone to cracking, thanks to their design that applies less stress during installation.

• Engineered to be molded directly into plastic components, enabling the installation of multiple fasteners simultaneously:

  • Reduced assembly time for greater efficiency.

  • Fewer part numbers, its standardized head design simplifies inventory and lowers associated costs.

  • Lower overall production costs.
