Our PTFE slotted hex head screws provide chemically resistant, electrically insulating fastening for laboratory equipment, chemical processing systems, and specialist industrial assemblies. Manufactured from polytetrafluoroethylene, these plastic screws offer a nonmetallic option where resistance to aggressive media is a priority.
The combination of an external hex head and slotted drive allows installation with a metric wrench, socket, or flat-blade screwdriver. This flexible tool access makes assembly and adjustment convenient in different equipment layouts.
PTFE offers excellent chemical resistance and low moisture absorption. These metric PTFE screws are best suited to applications with modest fastening loads, accounting for the material’s tendency to deform under sustained pressure.
