Shipping calculated at checkout.
Barrel Length: 20mm

M4 nickel-plated binding barrels and screws for removable clamping joints. Each set pairs an internally threaded barrel/post with a matching M4 screw; choose 20 mm, 25 mm, or 30 mm barrel length.

Why use binding barrels here

  • Removable two-piece fastener: the barrel and screw clamp material from both sides, so panels, plates, folders, leather, fixtures, and printer mods can be opened again later.
  • M4 internal thread: the screw and barrel are M4-threaded even though the outside of the barrel may be listed elsewhere by its roughly 5 mm outer diameter.
  • Nickel-plated finish: silver-tone plating gives a clean, corrosion-resistant surface for visible hardware.
  • Slotted head: installs with a flat-blade screwdriver; no hex key required.

Specifications

  • Thread: M4 internal barrel thread with matching M4 screw
  • Barrel lengths: 20 mm, 25 mm, or 30 mm
  • Finish: nickel plated, silver tone
  • Fastener style: binding barrel / binding post / Chicago screw / sex bolt
  • Drive: slotted head

Intended use

Useful anywhere you need a clean removable post-and-screw joint: bookbinding, leather and strap work, panels, brackets, fixtures, and 3D-printer projects that call for a binding screw or sex bolt. For Voron-style endstop work, compare the length and outside barrel diameter against the original BOM before ordering.

Pick the right length

  • 20 mm: shortest stocked barrel, best when the clamped stack is thin.
  • 25 mm: mid-length option when 20 mm is too short.
  • 30 mm: longest stocked option for thicker stacks or spacer-style use.

What it is not

  • Not a standard socket-head cap screw or machine screw by itself; it is a two-piece binding post set.
  • Not guaranteed to fit every “M5 sexbolt” BOM callout unless the BOM is referring to the barrel outside diameter and the required length matches.

Shipping:

US Shipping is via UPS or USPS. The way it is set up shows the least expensive options for standard, priority and express shipping. I can not take special requests for specific carriers at this time. 

International shipping is mostly UPS, as I utilize Zonos/UPS integration to tally extremely accurate import and shipping costs. 

I require a telephone and email with international orders and you must make yourself available to the carrier or your customs, should they require more information. If you are unreachable and the package is discarded or rerturned, I will not be responsible for rerturning your shipping cost. 

If there is a problem with an international order, it is my choice to refund part or all of the order, or send a replacement. 

Addresses are verified through Shopify, but the customer is still responsible for inputting their address in the correct format. Any returns or lost shipments, due to incorrectly addressed packages, are the responsibility of the customer.
