    Stainless Steel Now an Option for Quarter-Turn Fasteners

    Feb. 5, 2015

    The Southco DZUS D8 PANEX range of quarter-turn fasteners has been expanded to include stainless-steel fasteners that have the same ease for installation as the standard models, but offer vibration-resistant fastening and resistance to heat and corrosion for outdoor applications.

    The formed AISI/SAE 300 stainless steel increases the fasteners’ total material thickness (TMT) tolerance for robust fastening. They are available in size 6 with slotted, hex, and Phillips recessed heads, and mini clip-on and rivet-on receptacles are available optional features.
