SEMS Screws of Brass and Copper, Brass SEMS Screws, Copper SEMS Screws
SEMS screws are a unique combination of screws or bolts with permanently attached washers or sets of washers. Also referred to as washer-assembled screws, captivated washers, screw washer assemblies, or combi screws, SEMS screws streamline assembly processes, ensuring faster and more reliable installations.
Our SEMS Screws
The term SEMS originates from the Illinois Tool Works Inc., which pioneered machines capable of producing pre-assembled screws and washers. Today, the term is recognized as a generic reference for screw and washer assemblies. Washers are attached to screws before the threads are rolled, ensuring they remain securely in place due to the larger diameter of the threads compared to the washer’s inner diameter. We specialize in threading screws after installing washers and spring washers in different grades. Our speciality if Brass screws and Copper Screws and machine screws.
Benefits of SEMS Screws
