Metric Sems(S) type screws are regular screws to which one or more washers have been placed under the head before the fastener is threaded. These washers become captivated and a Sems(R) screw is born! Almost any non-countersunk screw can be made in a Sems(R) Style.

These fasteners are available in steel and stainless from stock. Many more sizes and configurations are available. Just ask your sales representative. If you don't see it, we can have it made for you! Washers that can be attached include flat washers, split lock washers, internal tooth lock washers, external tooth lock washers, fender washers, internal/external combination lock washers, and many more.
