Detailed Engineering Specifications

A high-performance industrial component, this M10 x 132mm Nylon Hex Head Cap Screw features a nominal diameter of M10 and a total length of 132mm. The hex head has a manufactured width of 17mm, ensuring compatibility with standard tooling. Constructed from high-grade nylon, it exhibits excellent chemical resistance to a wide range of acids, bases, and solvents. Its non-conductive nature makes it ideal for electrical applications, preventing short circuits. The material's inherent flexibility also offers vibration dampening capabilities and reduces the risk of over-tightening damage. This makes it suitable for applications requiring precise torque control and resistance to environmental degradation.
