Recess Panel Fasteners
Captive panel screws that sit in a recess.

Captive screws that stay with the panel when opened.
Panel fasteners are captive screw assemblies clinched into the door or cover. The screw stays with the panel when it is opened, so no screws are lost during service.
Full dimensions, preferred lengths and installation / push-out / torque-out performance data are shown in the datasheet below, taken from the self-clinching fasteners catalogue.
