Product Name
Leister 100.056 -COUNTERSUNK SCREW M3 X 8
Brief Description
This product is a genuine Leister 100.056 countersunk screw, specifically an M3 x 8mm size, designed as a replacement part for various Leister hot air tools and plastic welding equipment. It ensures precise fit and maintains the original equipment's integrity and performance.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Securing internal and external components within Leister hot air tools, plastic welding devices, and industrial heaters.- Maintenance and repair of Leister equipment, such as the Hot Jet S.- Fastening housing parts, nozzles, or accessories where a flush surface is required.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense (for precision heat applications)- Automotive Service/Repair (for plastic welding and repairs of vehicle components)- Construction/ Building Services (for roofing, flooring, civil engineering, and waterproofing applications)- Distributers & Resellers (for supplying genuine Leister spare parts)- Electrical Services or Products (for heat shrinking, insulation, and electronic component repair)- General Manufacturing (for process heating, assembly, and production lines)- Industrial Supply (as a standard industrial fastener and spare part)- Marine (for boat repair, processing epoxy resin, and shrinking cables)- Metal Fabrication (for soldering applications with specific Leister tools)- Packaging Services or Contractor (for shrink wrapping and packaging processes)- Plastic Fabrication (for joining, forming, and repairing plastic components)- Tarp, Fabric, Awning Manufacturing (for welding thermoplastic coated fabrics)- Thermoforming (for shaping and molding plastic materials)
Special and Unique Features
- Genuine Leister Part: Ensures exact compatibility, material quality, and performance as intended by the original equipment manufacturer.- Countersunk Head: Designed for flush mounting, providing a smooth, snag-free surface finish.- M3 x 8mm Specification: Standard metric dimensions for precise fit in designated Leister equipment.
Key Properties
- Type: Countersunk screw- Thread Size: M3 (3mm diameter)- Length: 8mm- Head Type: Countersunk (often requiring a hex key drive, though specific drive type isn't detailed for this part number, it's common for M3 countersunk screws)- Material: Typically steel (often zinc-plated or stainless steel for corrosion resistance, common for fasteners, though not specified for this exact part number)- Part Number: Leister 100.056
Surface Compatibility
Primarily compatible with the materials (plastics, metals) of Leister hot air tools and welding equipment where it is designed to be installed. The countersunk head is intended for use in pre-drilled countersunk holes to achieve a flush fit with the mating surface.
Known backups / known substitutes
Generic M3 x 8mm countersunk screws from other manufacturers *might* physically fit, but a genuine Leister part (100.056) is highly recommended. Using non-OEM parts could compromise the equipment's performance, durability, and potentially void warranties due to variations in material quality, thread precision, or head dimensions.
Comparison Note
As an OEM spare part, the Leister 100.056 screw is specifically engineered to meet the exact specifications and quality standards of Leister hot air tools. While standard M3 x 8mm countersunk screws are widely available, the Leister part guarantees optimal fit, material integrity, and reliability, which are crucial for the precision and longevity of specialized equipment. This distinction is vital for professional applications where equipment performance and safety are paramount.
