Captive Screws
Captive screws are specialized fasteners designed to stay attached to a panel or component even when fully loosened. This feature prevents the hardware from being lost during maintenance or assembly, making them perfect for applications that require frequent access. Commonly used in electronic enclosures, machinery panels, and automotive interiors, captive screws come in various head styles, including flat, fillister, button, hex washer, and knurled. They are usually made from durable materials like stainless steel, brass, or aluminum to ensure long-lasting performance. Austin Hardware offers a wide range of captive screws to meet different fastening requirements.
