Self tapping screw and its industrial application

Metric fastener is a very important engineering material, which has been used in many applications in different fields. Many industries use various types of Metric Fasteners, such as construction, wood processing, mobile and aerospace, and electronic equipment production.


However, in this particular content, I will introduce metric thread forming screws in particular. These are screws used to form material or base material around the hole until they are wrapped around the thread. As opposed to other metric screws, they do not remove any parts from the joint.


How do self tapping screws work?


In layman's terms, screw forming screws force the substrate or material to fit into its thread. The process is similar to self tapping screws (self tapping screws remove debris from the material), but they deform the substrate only by bending the substrate to the mating position without removing any of the joints.


application area


Metals or metallic materials - they can be used in a variety of metal materials, such as plate steel, sheet steel, non-ferrous metals and light metals; they can be used repeatedly (reuse).

Nylon and plastics - made from non-metallic materials, including acetals, polycarbonate, PVC and polypropylene.

Wood or wood material - re also has some types that can be specifically used for wood processing, such as in furniture and construction (e.g. m78007-ka18x5 Pt oval head steel zinc wn1412)

How to distinguish between high-strength nuts and ordinary nuts?

What is the difference between high-strength nuts and general nuts, in fact, you only need to understand their standards and other characteristics to easily distinguish them. The so-called high-strength nut is a special bolt with high strength and high fatigue resistance used in special equipment or engineering. Of course, generally high-strength nuts are used with high-strength bolts to achieve better application. We generally see that many bolts with M heads in the market are ordinary nuts, not high-strength nuts. The calibration side of the general hexagonal head nut is the following pattern M30, and M30 indicates the thread standard, that is, the inner diameter of the thread is 30mm. Grade 10 indicates the functional grade of the bolt, and tZn is the surface treatment method. Other types of bolts also have their own expressions, but generally threaded bolts have to use the original functional grade of "M": The functional level of the nut is divided into 3, 4, 4, 5, 5.8, 6...

Anti-corrosion method of stainless steel screw

Stainless steel screws are made of metal, and there are four main methods for metal corrosion protection, namely the nature of the material itself, the environment in which it is used, the interface between the material and the environment, and the design of improving the metal structure. If a complete corrosion-resistant alloy is used to manufacture stainless steel screws Unless there is a special requirement, it is not realistic in terms of economic concept, or the appearance of the screw is completely isolated from the environmental elements that will cause corrosion, which may not be feasible in practice, and it may be very difficult. Improved metal structure design can improve the impact of special circumstances under certain conditions, but the design of most stainless steel screws cannot be fully modified, and its maintenance function is not permanent. Therefore, this method cannot basically deal with the problem, as long as the interface is Anti-corrosion, that is, surface anti...

What is hardware

What is hardware? It is a general term which refers to metal tools used in the building and furniture. There are a lot of hardware products. They can be grouped into big hardware and small hardware. The former refers to steel materials, such as steel plate, steel bar, channel iron, flat iron. The later often refers to the following items, such as construction hardware, tin plate, iron wire, household hardware, and tools. According to its property and function, the hardware also can be grouped into eight classifications, namely steel material, non-iron metal material, mechanical parts, transmission equipment, auxiliary tool, work tool, construction hardware and household hardware. Owing to the limited space and time, the article will mainly introduce the small hardware. It has a lot of varieties and specifications. It plays a very important role in the room decoration. Only through choosing the good hardware components can people use the decorating material safely and conveniently. At p...
