Product Updates, Southco
Southco 47 Class captive screws (and the corresponding color-coded “Prism” 4C Class captive screws), offer hundreds of permutations of installation and tool-actuation styles for mounting doors, panels, and other hardware components in limited-space applications.
Features and Benefits
- As one of the most popular Southco fastener styles, these versatile captive screws have evolved to provide numerous features to satisfy unique fastening hardware application needs:
- Standard Phillips and Torx® recesses as well as combination recesses available
- Screw head doubles as knob for hand actuation
- Stylized knob for hand actuation, and ratchet-mechanism or smooth knobs for restricted access
- Spring ejected design retracts threads when not engaged
- Heat-treated steel screw provides superior torque strength
- “Prism” colored fasteners enable you to coordinate hardware to your design scheme or to differentiate access points through color
