Thread rolling - Import export

Using TAPTITE 2000® ensures that in metal-joining applications, you can eliminate work processes such as tapping and the use of additional fastening elements. The fastener is screwed straight into a cast or drilled core hole. The polygonal cross-section geometry of the shaft of the screw ensures that the thread is chiplessly formed, so that if a repair is needed it can accept a conventional threaded screw. This provides some significant quality advantages: easy to position the screw low tapping torque high vibration resistance high vibration resistance high pre-load forces high assembly reliability Your commercial benefits: The overall cost of fastenings is reduced by up to 88%.

K-TITE high-performance thread rolling fasteners are specially designed to lower your in-place fastening costs. K-TITE fasteners form internal threads into plain holes in ductile materials upon initial installation, which: • Eliminates the need to pre-tap the nut member • Reduces problems associated with assembling screws and bolts into pre-tapped holes, such as cross-threading

Lightweight structures in the automobile industry demand savings in materials and weight, while using materials and components with high load capacities. Plastic-moulded bushes take account of this development. They reinforce the plastic, make weak points for load-bearing functional elements and receive the pre-load forces of screw fastenings. The use of aluminium bushes saves even more weight, providing sophisticated solutions when combined with TAPTITE 2000® thread-rolling screws. Conform® bushes indicate high accuracy in length and diameter.
