Detailed Engineering Specifications

A high-performance industrial component, this M7 Hex Head Cap Screw is manufactured from high-grade Nylon, offering superior resistance to a broad spectrum of chemicals, solvents, and environmental degradation. With a nominal diameter of M7 and a precise length of 61mm, its substantial 35mm head width ensures adequate bearing surface for secure load distribution. The inherent dielectric properties of Nylon make it an ideal choice for applications where electrical conductivity must be mitigated, such as in control panels, sensitive electronic equipment, and marine environments. Its lightweight yet durable construction contributes to reduced assembly weight without compromising structural integrity.
