Spanner & Drive for M1.2 PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws

Drive geometry for M1.2 PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws is given by the row above; match the tool to the listed values.

M1.2 PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws Weight

A steel M1.2 peek engineering plastic micro countersunk screws at the listed 2.5 mm length weighs approximately 0.0 g each — about 0.0 kg per 1,000 pieces. Stainless A2/A4 weighs roughly the same (density 7.9–8.0 g/cm³).

Actual weight varies slightly with head form, thread and finish; use this figure for freight estimation only.

Installation Tips for M1.2 PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws

  • At M1.2 the joint is sensitive to over-torque — use a torque-limiting driver and check the head doesn't bury into a softer counterpart.

Mating Parts for M1.2

For M1.2, pair with a M1.2 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M1.2 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.

Applications & Industries for M1.2 PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws

PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws are bought for a small number of well-defined jobs. These are the ones we ship them for. Stocked from M1.2 to M1.6.

Industries that specify PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws

  • Prototype assemblies Countersunk plastic screws avoid a metal head near the component.
  • Insulated electronics Engineering-plastic screws provide a nonconductive threaded joint in a compact package.
  • Vacuum and analytical equipment Low-outgassing plastic is used around sensitive instruments.
  • Chemical equipment PEEK resists service environments where ordinary metal hardware may be unsuitable.
  • Automotive & transport Chassis, driveline and body fixings that see vibration and are assembled to a controlled preload.
  • Steel fabrication Bolted connections in frames, enclosures, walkways and weldments, on the bench and on site.

Typical applications

  • using the 90-degree head seat and No. 0 recess
  • providing electrical insulation with a miniature countersunk screw
  • checking the documented break loads instead of borrowing metal-screw torque
  • matching the plastic screw to the parent thread without over-driving it
  • joints where the property class is stated on the drawing
  • clamping two machined faces to a calculated preload

Service conditions to specify against

Marine and coastal
Available in A4 (316) stainless for chloride exposure — coastal structures, pool halls, water treatment and deck hardware, where A2 will eventually pit.
High load
Supplied in ISO 898-1 property classes, so the joint can be designed to a stated proof load and tightened to a calculated torque rather than by feel.
Torque and preload
The joint is designed around bolt tension, so lubrication, coating and the friction coefficient all change the torque figure — state them together.

Where to use something else

  • Do not substitute metal-fastener torque for the plastic break-torque example; over-driving can fracture the screw.
  • Do not use a machine thread into unthreaded sheet or timber; use a tapping screw, rivet nut or insert made for that parent material.

Inside the plant

Manufactured in our own plant

This part is cold-formed, threaded, heat-treated and finished in-house. The stages below are where its class and finish are actually decided.

  1. Wire rod feeding into a cold heading machine
    01

    Cold heading

    Wire rod is drawn to size and cold-formed into blanks. Forming rather than cutting keeps the grain flow continuous around the head, which is where a bolt is most likely to fail.

    Head dimensions and under-head radius checked at set-up and per shift.

  2. Thread rolling machine producing bolt threads
    02

    Thread rolling

    Threads are rolled between hardened dies rather than cut. Rolled threads are stronger in fatigue than cut threads and hold pitch and flank angle far more consistently across a batch.

    Go / no-go ring gauges to ISO 965 tolerance class 6g.

  3. Baskets of bolts staged for heat treatment
    03

    Heat treatment

    Quench-and-temper brings carbon and alloy steel to the property class ordered — 8.8, 10.9 or 12.9 — with the furnace charge tracked so a finished lot can be traced back to it.

    Core hardness and tensile tested per lot to ISO 898-1.

  4. Zinc plated bolts in a treatment basket
    04

    Surface treatment

    Zinc, zinc-nickel, hot-dip galvanizing, black oxide, phosphate and Dacromet, selected against the service environment rather than against the price list.

    Coating thickness and neutral salt spray hours to ISO 9227.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the typical proof load behavior of M1.2 class 8.8?

Micro-thread joints are sensitive to plastic deformation in the first turn under load — use a torque-limiting driver and check the bearing surface deformation on softer mating materials.

Is M1.2 PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws suitable for electronics and small mechanisms?

M1.2 PEEK Engineering Plastic Micro Countersunk Screws is in the micro range and is widely used in electronics, instrument enclosures and small precision mechanisms. Watch the over-torque margin — micro joints strip easily.
