Detailed Engineering Specifications

Engineered for reliability and performance, this M11x91mm hex head cap screw is manufactured from high-grade polycarbonate, a thermoplastic polymer known for its excellent impact resistance, high tensile strength, and superior dielectric properties. The M11 thread size ensures secure mating with M11 tapped holes or nuts, while the 91mm length provides ample engagement for structural connections. The 18mm head width facilitates easy installation and removal using standard tools, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring non-metallic fastening solutions, such as in electrical enclosures, medical equipment, or corrosive environments where metal fasteners would degrade.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the screw, leading to material stress or cracking.Tighten the screw to snug, then an additional 1/8 to 1/4 turn. For critical applications, use a torque wrench set to the manufacturer's recommended value for polycarbonate fasteners.
Using metal tools that can scratch or damage the polycarbonate head.Utilize tools made of softer materials like nylon or brass, or ensure adequate protection is placed between the metal tool and the screw head.

Common Applications

  • Electrical enclosures and switchgear
  • Medical device assembly
  • Corrosive chemical processing equipment
  • Aerospace and automotive components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Polycarbonate can be susceptible to certain solvents and chemicals; verify compatibility before use.
  • Avoid excessive exposure to UV radiation for prolonged periods, as it may degrade material properties over time.
