Nippon Chemical Screw (Tokyo) added "PEEK knurled screw" and "PEEK algorithm 30 material millimeter screw" to the lineup in April.
The company has already released the "PC knurled screw", which has a SUSXM7 shaft and a PC head that can be fastened with your fingertips.
This time, there is a demand for applications that require heat resistance, chemical resistance, and insulation performance for semiconductor manufacturing equipment, FPD manufacturing equipment, industrial machinery, medical equipment, water treatment equipment, and food manufacturing equipment. Developed "PEEK knurled screw" using PEEK on the head. The heat-resistant temperature is 260 degrees and the corrosion resistance is SUSXM7, so the head remains even if the shank is melted by chemicals.
The inch standard was already in the lineup, but the millimeter standard (M1.2, M1.4, M2, M3, M4, M5) was added.
