Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this M17x92mm Nylon Hex Head Cap Screw features a nominal diameter of M17 and a length of 92mm. The hex head offers a secure grip with a specified width of 8mm for standard tooling. Constructed from high-quality nylon, it provides superior corrosion resistance against a broad spectrum of chemicals, solvents, and moisture, making it ideal for corrosive atmospheres. Furthermore, nylon's inherent dielectric strength ensures excellent electrical insulation, preventing short circuits and arcing in sensitive electrical assemblies. This material also offers a lightweight alternative to metal fasteners, reducing overall assembly weight without compromising structural integrity in non-load-bearing or moderate-load applications.

Installation Procedure

1. Select appropriate tooling for an M17 hex head, ensuring the tool engages fully with the head. 2. Insert the screw into the pre-tapped hole or through aligned components, ensuring smooth thread engagement. 3. Tighten the screw to the required torque specification for nylon fasteners, avoiding over-tightening to prevent thread stripping or material deformation.
