- Help reduce part count and the risk of loose hardware by providing a threaded captive screw fastener directly on the board.
- Packaged on tape and reel for compatibility with standard automated SMT placement equipment.
- Feature a polyimide patch for vacuum pickup, supporting automated placement during board assembly.
- Available in inch thread sizes 4-40 and 6-32, plus metric thread sizes M3 x 0.5 and M3.5 x 0.6.
