It is a threaded fastener that clamps parts together when it is turned into a tapped hole or a nut. The same part number is used across many Kansai Special machine families, for example FX, DFB and NW\/NL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome screws only clamp a part, while others set a position, such as a stop screw that limits a lever's travel. For a stop screw, length and tip set that position, so a screw that is slightly off changes how the mechanism works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKansai Special part number: \u003cstrong\u003e87-1040-0\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart name: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort form of the number: 87-104\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Screws, Nuts \u0026amp; Washers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread: M3 x 0.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength (L): 3 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKansai Special parts books that list this part: FX, DFB, NW\/NL and 22 more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoosing the right part\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScrews that look alike can differ in thread pitch, length or head.
