Screw achieves secure fastening in plastics.

BosScrew(TM) addresses issue of plastic assemblies loosening from plastic creep that dissipates clamp load. Rather than compensating for plastic creep, fastener uses creep to achieve interlocking embedment of threads in material. Once clamp load is applied to assembly, plastic creeps into indentations in threads, creating resistance bumps in material. To loosen, reverse tightening torque must be...
