What are RENY Screws?

RENY Screws are precision-engineered fasteners crafted from glass fibre-reinforced nylon, known for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and durability.

These plastic screws are designed for high-performance applications, offering both strength and resistance to corrosion, chemicals and extreme temperatures. Whether you're dealing with intricate assemblies or high-stress environments, RENY Screws provide reliable fastening solutions with minimal wear on surrounding components.

Available in various head types, such as cap head, countersunk, pan head, and grub, these screws are versatile enough to meet the demands of any engineering project, no matter how specialised.

How RENY Screws Work

RENY screws are designed to provide secure and reliable fastening across a wide range of industries, from automotive to electronics and even aerospace applications. Their lightweight yet robust construction makes them ideal for situations where reducing weight without compromising on strength is crucial.

For instance, in the automotive industry, RENY screws can be used to fasten components in areas exposed to high temperatures and chemicals, such as under the bonnet. In electronics, their non-conductive properties prevent short circuits, making them perfect for securing high-voltage components.

When installed, RENY screws create a tight, secure fit that resists loosening, even under dynamic loads or vibration. This ensures that your assembly remains intact and functional, providing peace of mind in critical applications.

What Material RENY Screws Are Made From

Reny screws are made from glass fibre-reinforced nylon, a material that combines the lightweight nature of nylon with the added strength of glass fibres. This material offers several advantages over standalone nylon screws, including high tensile strength, excellent fatigue resistance and outstanding resistance to chemicals and high temperatures.

In environments where metal screws might corrode or fail, RENY screws maintain their integrity, making them ideal for outdoor or chemically harsh environments.

Moreover, the non-conductive nature of this material makes RENY screws a preferred choice in the electronics industry, where preventing electrical interference is essential. The material's natural lubricity also reduces friction during installation, ensuring a smoother, more controlled tightening process.

Size and Type RENY Screws Available

Accu's RENY screws come in a broad range of sizes and types, making them suitable for a variety of applications. The shortest length available is 1.5mm, with the range extending up to 40mm, catering to both miniature assemblies and more substantial constructions. Thread sizes range from M1.2 (1.2mm) to M8 (8mm), providing options for both small and large metric-size threading requirements.

These screws are available in several head types, including cap head, countersunk, pan head and grub/set screw, each offering unique advantages depending on the application. For example, RENY cap head screws are ideal for applications requiring a strong fit, while Countersunk screws are perfect for creating a smooth flush surface finish. Additionally, the various drive types such as hex socket, Phillips and Torx ensure compatibility with different tooling, making installation straightforward and efficient.

For those looking for additional fastening solutions, consider exploring our range of titanium screws and nylon fasteners, which offer complementary benefits for various applications. These related products provide further options when dealing with projects requiring lightweight, corrosion-resistant or non-conductive components.

FAQs

Q: Difference between RENY vs PEEK?

A: RENY screws are lightweight, strong and chemically resistant, ideal for reducing weight in high-performance applications. PEEK Screws offer higher heat resistance and superior mechanical properties, making them better suited for extreme conditions such as rocketry or laboratory settings.

Q: What are RENY screws reinforced with?

A: The reinforced nylon in RENY screws is reinforced with glass fibres, which enhance the material's strength, durability and resistance to wear and environmental factors. This reinforcement makes RENY screws ideal for demanding applications.

Q: Are RENY Screws UV Resistant?

A: Yes, RENY Screws offer excellent UV resistance, making them suitable for outdoor applications where prolonged exposure to sunlight is a factor. Their durability ensures long-term performance even in harsh environmental conditions.

Q: Can RENY Screws be used in high-vibration environments?

A: Absolutely. RENY Screws are designed to maintain a secure fit even in high-vibration environments, making them ideal for applications such as automotive and aerospace assemblies where constant movement could loosen other fasteners.
