Product catalog summary
Overview: This document outlines the specifications and installation instructions for Southco® Captive Fasteners, focusing on polished, spring-ejected series with various thread sizes such as M3, M4, M5, M6, 4-40, 6-32, 8-32, 10-32, and 1/4-20. These fasteners are available in black and bright polished finishes.
Specifications:
  • Materials: Screws are made from 302 or 303 stainless steel, standoffs from 305 stainless steel, and retainers from nylon. Components are passivated, with some having a black organic coating.
  • Torque Limitations: M3 screws should not exceed 0.4 N•m, while 4-40 and 6-32 screws should not exceed 3-1/2 in.-lb.
  • Dimensions: Detailed dimensions are provided for each thread size, including outer panel thickness and installation methods.
Installation Procedures:
  • Standoff Installation: Insert the standoff into the hole and flare into the countersink using a flaring punch and back-up tool.
  • Screw Captivation: Assemble by seating the spring into the retainer, inserting the screw through the standoff, and snapping the retainer into place.
Recommendations:
  • Ensure proper orientation of the spring during installation.
  • Use the correct installation method (A or B) based on the outer panel thickness and desired thread size.
Part Numbers: Part numbers correspond to specific screw and standoff combinations, shipped unassembled and protectively packaged. Tables are provided to select the correct part number based on dimensions and thread size.
Additional Notes: Longer screw lengths and unslotted head styles are available upon special order. Dimensions without tolerances are for reference only. Products are stocked globally and may require shipping time if unavailable locally. For screws with a black finish, change the last digit of the part number from '4' to '6'.
