ecosyn® IMX screws simplify your manufacturing processes, increase the level of connection reliability, and have a proven corrosion resistance. Is made of corrosion-resistant steel and hard enough to form a metric thread in stainless steels.
The ecosyn® IMX screws made of a martensitic, quenched, and tempered stainless steel are especially intended for direct assembly in corrosion resistant thin sheet metal (INOX A2, etc.). The screws can be assembled into all plastically, deformable materials with a maximum hardness range from 135 HV to 250 HV. Stress corrosion cracking is possible in aggressive environments and with and certain material combinations.
Advantages:
- Can be used in stainless steels
- Resistance against vibration loosening
- No thread cutting
- Higher load-bearing capacity due to strain hardening of the nut material
- Compatible with metric screw threads
- High corrosion resistance (comparable to INOX A2)
- Savings in component production as well as in assembly due to the elimination of safety elements
