iForm® Crimptite® Screws
Engineered for maximum performance in thin metals, Crimptite® outperforms the competition. In tests performed to determine the strip and seating torque of similar fasteners, Crimptite® fasteners consistently showed higher strip-out torques and higher drive-to-strip ratios.
Even after removal and reinsertion, Crimptite® sheet metal screws maintain their strong holding power for more solid assemblies and greater integrity in the finished product.
Crimptite® fasteners can be used as repair screws where standard sheet metal screws have stripped out. They are also excellent for grounding-screw applications. The undercut head delivers the high clamp loads required to secure grounding connections, and can be used with or without wire clips.
