Plastic screws from M2 to M24
Our plastic screws are made from various types of plastic, such as e.g. nylon (polyamide), PVDF, PTFE, hard PVC, PP, PE, POM, PAFV, etc. They are mostly used in situations where corrosion resistance, insulation or low weight are required. The plastic screws are versatile and are used in areas such as electronics, construction and the automotive industry. Thanks to their easy handling and mouldability, plastic screws offer an alternative solution to conventional metal screws.

Drive options for plastic screws
The drive types for plastic screws are diverse and mirror the classic variations of metal screws. Among the most common drives found in the Bülte range are:
- Slotted: A simple drive where a slot is located in the screw head, operated with a flathead screwdriver.
- Phillips: This variant offers better guidance for the screwdriver and reduces the risk of slipping.
- Allen: Very precise and ideal for applications where space for the drive is limited.
- Torx: 6-lobe plastic screws with a star-shaped six-point drive enable optimal torque transfer and minimize wear.
- Pozidriv: This is an evolution of the cross slot drive, allowing for even greater torque transfer.
In the Bülte range, you will find not only protective caps for hex screws or decorative caps for Phillips screws, but also suitable cover caps for Pozidriv screws.

Plastic screws are available in many different materials and have established themselves as extremely versatile fastening elements, finding numerous applications across various industries.
