Description:
Cat® fastener parts are designed for specific applications based on size, strength, clamp load, and past performance. This is information other manufacturers do not have. They are selected to last until rebuild or the life of the machine. While it may seem as though non-Cat hardware and fasteners are suitable for your machine, no other company knows your equipment like we do.
These screws can create their own threads. The plastic thread forming have threads shaped to not crack a plastic boss. There are several types of metal thread forming, from screws intended for sheet metal to ones capably of making threads in structural steel.
