Are you searching for components that are compatible with CE Marking and offer protection against contamination? Look no further than NBK's Captive Series! We provide fall prevention of parts in machine elements, making them perfect for use in food machinery, packaging machinery, and chemical manufacturing equipment.

According to the EU Machinery Directive Annex 1, screws that secure protective or inspection covers of equipment and devices must not fall out of the cover when it's removed. Our Captive Series is designed to ensure that even when the screw is removed from the frame, it doesn't fall out of the cover because it catches on the cover screw hole. You can see how it works here.

We provide an extensive range of captive screws, including hex socket head cap screws, hex bolts, pan head machine screws, and other types. If you're having trouble finding the appropriate captive screw, we offer a captive processing service as an option. This service allows you to convert our standard screws into captive screws.

One of our standout products in the Captive Series is the SSCHS (Socket Head Cap Captive Screw with Special Low Head) series. With a special low head and available in various thread types, including M3-M8, it's an excellent choice for machinery and devices with limited overhead space, as it helps reduce their overall size.

So, if you need components that meet CE Marking standards and offer protection against contamination, NBK's Captive Series is the solution for you.
