S-95966A702 M6 x 10 mm Captive Panel Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments.
• Reliable panel retention through the captive panel screw design, preventing loosening and loss in vibration-prone assemblies.
• High-strength performance with 70,000 psi tensile strength, ensuring a secure and durable hold under load.
• Secure and efficient installation using the 5mm hex socket drive, providing excellent torque transfer and reducing tool slippage.
• Enhanced grip during manual adjustment thanks to the knurled head texture, facilitating easier handling in tight spaces.
• Optimized thread engagement with a Class 6g thread fit and coarse M6x1mm thread, enabling quick assembly and reducing cross-threading risks.
• Compliance with environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safety and suitability for global markets.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M6 captive panel screw is engineered to solve common industrial assembly challenges, such as maintaining secure panel attachments in equipment subject to vibration and frequent access. The 18-8 stainless steel material provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, extending service life in demanding environments like electronics enclosures, machinery guards, and automotive panels. Its partially threaded shank and coarse metric thread ensure rapid installation and reliable clamping force, while the knurled head offers improved grip for manual adjustments without specialized tools. By integrating a 5mm hex drive, it enables high-torque application with standard tools, reducing assembly time and improving overall efficiency in high-volume production lines.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw features a metric thread with M6x1mm coarse pitch and Class 6g thread fit for precise dimensional accuracy. The length tolerance is -0.3mm to 0.3mm, ensuring consistent performance. It is manufactured in compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, confirming its adherence to environmental and safety standards for industrial use.
