Black Chicago Screw - Thru Hole Binding Post Kit 1/8, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2 Inch Machine Screw Fasteners + Rubber Washers, QuickClipPro Kydex Leather Holster Sheath

I have used these exact Chicago screws on several holster and knife sheath builds. They have been used with both .080" and .060" Kydex, and put through some heavy abuse with holster applications, as well as magazine pouches. They remain tight once set without the need for thread locker, the rubber washers have held up to the elements well and I have even attempted to over tighten the screws to see if they would break such as the screws that were supplied from a very large holster/tactical gear manufacturer. The only issue I have noticed, that in no way hinders the performance of these screws, is the black finish is prone to wear and seems to wear easily. However, I have used hundreds of these Chicago screws with zero malfunctions/breaking. The addition of the slotted back makes it very easy to tighten these screws to the required torque unlike those that do not have a slotted back. The phillips head on the top/front of the screw fits a standard #2 phillips driver perfectly and prevents slipping and rounding of the screw head.

The post screws arrived promptly in a neat package and were exactly what I was looking for. They came in a pack of ten with good quality rubber o-rings as pictured. I personally used them as retention adjustment screws as well as clip fastening screws for my DIY kydex holster project using .080" thickness kydex. The screws cleared that thickness of kydex wonderfully and I could see them doing fine with thicker variants of kydex as well. For my retention screw I used 3 of the included o-rings for spacing as I molded my holster very tightly and was still able to get the screws together easily. They held together well and did not loosen with usage, though I'll be adding a little loctite in the future just for a little extra peace of mind. I was also extremely happy to hear these are made in the USA as well as is manufactured by a small family run operation.

I bought these to replace another brand I bought previously that had duds that would not screw together. These are so much better, the machining looks better the finish is better and so far they have all screwed together with no duds. At just under a dollar each item it can be the most expensive part of some sheaths so it is nice to get what you pay for = fasteners that work. These will be my go to from now on.

They only send you half the number of binding posts and washers for the number of screws in the package. Horrible value for the money because of that. Will not buy again.Edit: Had to buy more because these are apparently the only chumps that ***allegedly*** make them in the United States. They smell HORRIBLE!!!!!! They have exactly the same obnoxious odor as Harbor Freight stores have except a million tines worse. I don’t know if they’ve begun having these made in some third-world country now or what, but I can’t send this crap to my customers on my custom projects.You people need to clean these things or stop making them wherever the **** harbor freight has their junk made. This garbage is stinking up my entire shop even inside it’s tiny ziplok baggie. Disgusting!!!!!!!

Product was delivered timely and worked perfectly for the project at hand :-) Thank you! I am a 3rd party contractor in the pest control industry and wear a Batman belt. I was making an articulting arm to carry something called a critter catcher. Basically it's an apparatus that grabs spiders safely without killing them. I have a rear stow compartment mounted with tek loks and was able to build off of it from there. Pretty nifty! It makes all the difference when you have the right kind of hardware and these binding posts are the bomb diggidy!Highly recommend vendor.

This order arrived on time in perfect condition. These work just fine and I should be able to put them to good use in the future. They are made with a high quality and precision. The item that I bought them for is a sheath for a Kbar BK 11 sheath, but these were too large to mount a metal belt clip. I have many kydex holsters and plan on making my own in the near future so these will come in handy. As stated these are well made of high quality and I recommend them for anyone replacing existing or building new kydex products. Thanks, Heezy LLC!!!

First of all they're actually steel and not aluminum or some cheap tin.Also they are made in america which is what i require when i make a kydex sheath or holster. The package says proudly made in USA

These screws work perfectly to replace the ones in my kydex holster. Only reason for 4 stars is the description says "flat head," but they are button or pan head screws. No issue for my use, but if you need a flat head (flat on top where the screwdriver goes in, tapered below the head where the head and threads come together), these are not the ones for you.
