If your equipment is exposed to harsh environments, then ZaGO reckons it is best protected using its range of sealing screws, fasteners, bolts, and rivets, which offer unsurpassed fastening and sealing power.

Among sealing fasteners, says ZaGO, socket head cap screws are becoming the fastener of choice, due to their space saving design and superior strength. The six flat surfaces within the recess allows for high torquing without damaging the head and have no side clearance restrictions – ideal for assemblies with close tolerances. Socket caps sealing screws are also usually made from stronger alloy steel compared with hex cap screws (depending on the grade and manufacturer).
Depending on the customer’s specific sealing application, ZaGO can provide socket cap screws with o-rings in various materials such as silicone, viton, buna and fluoro-silicone. Its engineering and sales team is always available to assist customers with choosing the right product for their application.
