Introducing our Next-Gen 4D Captive Screw: Small Parts, Huge Upgrade

We are excited to introduce our next-generation 4D Captive Screw, featuring a self-aligning knob and increased tolerance.

The 4D Captive Screw is designed for both customer and manufacturer convenience. Customers keep all the benefits of captive screws, such as easy ergonomic operation, clearly marked touch points, and the lack of small pieces during removal.

Meanwhile, manufacturers can enjoy the usual wide range of installation options and head styles, all while simplifying their installation process. 4D SMT Captive Screws feature a self-aligning knob, so there is no stabilizing plug to remove after installation. Additionally, increased tolerance allows manufacturers to install multiple press-in screws at once without worrying about minor height differences.

The 4D Captive Screw also available in a variety of knob styles, and supports many different installation methods. Standard nylon knobs are available in black, green, and blue, with additional custom colors available on request. These knobs are designed to be comfortably operated by hand, but are also available with No.2 Phillips, T10 TORX, and T15 TORX recesses for easy tool operation.

This versatility combined with time-saving innovations for manufacturers make the Southco 4D Captive Screw a fantastic choice for those seeking to provide convenience for customers while simplifying their manufacturing process.
