Product Description

Where Do You Need Sealing Screws?

Application What’s at Risk Our Solution
Outdoor Electrical Enclosures Rain, condensation, dust ingress IP67/IP68 rated O-ring seal
Junction Boxes & Meters Moisture causing short circuits EPDM washer – weatherproof
Marine / Boat Equipment Salt water corrosion 316 stainless steel + silicone O-ring
Metal Roofing Leaks through fastener holes Self-sealing screw with bonded washer
Automotive Lighting Fogging inside lamp housings Compression seal – stays tight
Industrial Control Panels Dust and humidity Pre-installed rubber gasket

How Does the Seal Work?

Sealing Type How It Works Best For
O-ring Seal Rubber ring compressed between head and surface General purpose, water and dust ingress prevention
EPDM Bonded Washer Washer bonded to the head – cannot detach or shift Outdoor applications, metal roofing, UV exposure
Silicone Seal Stays flexible under severe temperature ranges (-50°C to +200°C) Extreme temperature conditions
FKM / Viton Seal High-performance resistance against chemicals, oils, and fuels Harsh industrial and chemical environments
Nitrile (NBR) Seal Resilient material with high oil and fuel resistance Automotive systems, industrial machinery

Head Styles Available

  • Phillips Pan Head – Standard design compatible with any Phillips screwdriver. Ideal for general-purpose fastening.
  • Hex Washer Head – Built-in flange eliminates the need for a separate washer while offering a wide clamping surface.
  • Hex Socket Head – Allen key drive mechanism, specifically designed for tight spaces and high-torque installations.

Materials We Offer

Material Best For
304 Stainless Steel Outdoor environments, damp conditions, standard corrosion resistance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the advantage of using a pre-assembled sealing screw?

Pre-assembled sealing screws feature an integrated O-ring or bonded washer directly beneath the head. This eliminates the need for manual liquid sealants or separate loose washers, ensuring quick installation and a uniform 360-degree leak-proof barrier.

Q: Which sealing material should I select for high temperature applications?

Silicone seals are best suited for extreme temperature variations, functioning reliably between -50°C and +200°C. For chemical and extreme heat resistance combined, FKM (Viton) is also an optimal solution.

Q: What waterproof ingress protection levels do these screws provide?

Our sealing screws are engineered to achieve IP67 and IP68 waterproof and dustproof ratings, effectively sealing against high-pressure moisture, total submersion, and fine particulate ingress.

Q: When should I choose 316 stainless steel over 304?

While 304 stainless steel provides excellent general corrosion resistance for outdoor damp environments, 316 stainless steel contains molybdenum, providing superior protection against saltwater, marine environments, and corrosive chemicals.

Q: Can I request non-standard lengths or custom drive types?

Yes, we provide full OEM and custom manufacturing services. You can submit your technical drawing or physical sample to obtain fasteners made to your exact dimensions, head styles, and seal specifications.

Q: How is the seal retention verified during manufacturing?

Every batch undergoes rigorous quality control under ISO 9001 and ISO 10012 standards. O-rings and bonded washers are mechanically tested for secure head retention and compression performance to prevent dislodging during shipment or installation.
