21100276

Overview

The nVent SCHROFF part number 21100-276 is a steel grub screw designed for enclosure mounting applications. It features an M2.5 thread size with a pitch of 0.45mm and a total length of 8mm. The component utilizes a slotted drive type for installation. The material is steel, finished with a nickel plating to enhance corrosion resistance and durability. This fastener is RoHS compliant, ensuring adherence to environmental standards for restricted hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from high-stability steel with a nickel-plated surface finish for reliable performance in chassis and subrack assemblies.

Applications

• Mounting hardware for industrial enclosures
• Securing components within chassis structures
• Assembly of subracks

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact specification requirements against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the M2.5 thread size and 8mm length are compatible with the intended assembly holes. Ensure the nickel-plated steel material meets the environmental and mechanical needs of the application. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications. Note that availability may vary as some distributors indicate discontinued status.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard M2.5 slotted grub screw is required for steel enclosure systems. Consider the 8mm length to ensure proper engagement without protruding into sensitive areas. The nickel plating offers basic corrosion protection suitable for general indoor environments. Verify compatibility with existing tooling for slotted drives. Evaluate alternative materials if higher corrosion resistance or non-magnetic properties are needed.

Part Context

This part belongs to the nVent SCHROFF range of enclosure mounting hardware. It is specifically engineered for use in rack and panel systems where secure, low-profile fastening is necessary. The product line focuses on providing standardized solutions for industrial electronics housing and structural assembly tasks.

Replacement Considerations
