When you need to keep parts secure in harsh environments, Monel 400 might be your best option. This high-performance alloy is strong and resistant to corrosion. KD Fasteners is the leading provider of flat head socket cap screws manufactured from this material.
What’s A Flat Head Socket Cap Screw?
A flat head socket cap screw is a threaded fastener with a flat cylindrical head and hexagonal drive hole. It’s used to secure mating parts or panels of an assembly or upper-level tool.
The flat socket head enables driving when sufficient space for wrenches or sockets isn’t available. Tightening occurs when torque is applied to the screw head. Upon successful insertion, the screw head sits flush with the surface of the mating part.
Unless otherwise specified, the screw head is clean. The absence of stampings or markings offers a smooth, visually pleasing appearance.
The Monel 400 Advantage
Monel 400 is an alloy composed primarily of nickel and copper that’s hardened by cold working. Superior resistance to corrosion, high temperatures, and stress corrosion cracking make it perfect for critical applications. Other characteristics include:
- Low Weight
- Good Weldability
- Moderate To High Strength
- Withstands Saltwater, Steam, And Caustic Solution Exposure
- Good Ductility
- Easy To Shape And Form
- Good Strength-To-Weight Ratio
A low corrosion rate in rapidly flowing brackish or seawater coupled with excellent resistance to stress-corrosion cracking in freshwater means Monel 400 is suitable for applications where exposure to corrosive liquids or gases is common. Examples include marine, power generation, aerospace, chemicals, water treatment, and food and beverage.
