SEBO Screw C 2.9 x 13 (DIN 7981) for X1/X2, X4/X5, G Series, 300/350, ET-H and DISCO

SEBO's parts books give this fastener an unusually long fitment: the X1 and X2, the X4 and X5, the G series, the 300 and 350, the ET-H power head and the DISCO all take the C 2.9 x 13 to DIN 7981. It is the cross-recessed pan head tapping screw in the 2.9 mm size at 13 mm long, cutting its own thread into the moulded boss, and part 107 supplies it individually.

Fine screws in thin plastic are the ones that get away. They sit in shallow bosses, they are easy to over-drive, and they are small enough that one rolling off a bench is rarely found again. The failure that brings people looking is a cover that no longer sits flat, a screw that turns endlessly without ever going tight, or a recess so rounded that no driver will take it out cleanly.

• Part number: 107
• Fits: SEBO X1, X2, X4, X5, the G series, the 300 and 350, the ET-H power head and the DISCO

Where a machine takes several 2.9 mm screws of differing lengths, lay them out in the order they come off so each goes back where it belongs. Returning a short screw to a deep hole leaves the joint clamped on two threads, and the panel works loose again within a few weeks of use.

The breadth of that fitment list is worth noting when stocking a workshop. One part number covers uprights, the G range, the 300 and 350, a power head and the floor polisher, so a small quantity kept in the drawer answers most of the jobs that would otherwise wait on an order. Start each one by hand for the first turn so the thread follows the path already cut in the plastic.

Anyone searching for a SEBO X5 cover screw, a SEBO G series 2.9 x 13 fastener, an ET-H power head screw or a genuine SEBO DIN 7981 replacement is looking at the right listing. Genuine SEBO hardware from an authorized dealer, shipping in 2-5 business days.
