Request Information
Dual Spaced Thread fasteners, or DST®, allow increased thread engagement in softer thermoplastics with their high thread height and wide thread spacing. This also increases resistance to pull-out and improves product performance.

They are available in sizes ranging from #2 to 5/16 (M2.50 to M8.0), in pan, hex, flat, oval, and hex washer head styles, with point styles available of blunt, gimlet or pilot.
