Self-tapping screw anti-brittle fracture technology is inseparable from heat treatment

Self-tapping screws are often seen in metal plates with relatively thin links (steel plates, saw plates, etc.). Due to the high strength of the threaded surface of the self-tapping screw (≥HRC45), when linking, the self-tapping screw is screwed into the connector that has been made with the threaded bottom hole in advance, so that the inner thread can be tapped in the threaded bottom hole of the link The thread thus completes the connection. There is a special screw that has better working performance than ordinary self-tapping screws and can even replace machine screws-self-tapping pin screws are often used for links between thin metal plates. The difference between it and the ordinary self-tapping screw is the ordinary thread with the arc-shaped triangular interface with higher hardness. This kind of excellent screw with low screwing torque and high locking performance, of course, can also tap the internal thread in the threaded bottom hole to be connected like a normal screw. The wa...

Types and advantages of flange bolts

Flange bolts are integral bolts composed of hexagon head, flange (washer and hexagon fixed body under the hexagon) and screw (cylinder with external thread). Need to be fastened with the nut to connect the two through-hole parts.   The flange bolts can be separated. If the nut is removed from the bolt, the two parts can be separated, so the bolt connection is a detachable connection. Flange bolts need to be matched with nuts to fix the two through-hole parts.   There are four types of flange bolts: 1. Types of hexagonal flange bolts: There are two types of hexagonal heads, one is concave head and the other is flat head. 2. Surface color classification: according to different needs, the surface is plated white, army green, yellow, and will never rust. 3. Flange bolt category: according to the position of the flange bolt, the size requirements of the disc will be different. There are also teeth on the bottom, flat, with teeth to prevent slipping. 4. According to the connection f...
