EMC screws
(EMC = Electro-Magnetic Compatibility)
Purpose:
-
EMC screws are used for repairs in the E60 (GRAV = reduced weight aluminium front end) (sourcing reference via
BMW Parts Service picture board 83-0286).
-
They assume the function of welded joints, which ensure transition to ground between the individual components.
-
The EMC screws ensure the operational reliability and safety of the electrical/electronic components following
repairs!
-
Neither the punch rivets used as standard nor the blind rivets used in repairs ensure a transition to ground
between the individual components!
Procedure:
-
Each welded joint which is opened must be replaced by at least 2 EMC screws.
-
Position the 2 screws on the flange on which the weld seam has been separated. In the event of partial
replacement, position the screws in the area of the component overlap.
-
In the case of repairs using partial replacement, the number of EMC screws described in the repair instructions
must be fitted.
-
Drill holes to a diameter of 4.2 mm and insert screws.
-
Seal EMC screws with PU sealing material (risk of corrosion).
