Large Double End Studs - 1"-8 Partially Threaded Studs In Plain B7 Material

We supplied our customer with 3 different sizes of these large double end studs: 160 pieces of 1"-8 X 5.125" with 1-1/2" and 1-3/4" of thread lengths, 30 pieces of 3/4"-10 X 3.8125" with 1" and 1-1/4" of thread lengths, and 12 pieces of 1-1/8"-8 X 5-3/4" with 1-7/8" and 1-1/4" thread lengths.  All threaded studs were made domestically using B7 material with light oil plain finish.  One side of each double end stud was stamped with the B7 material designation.  Lead time to produce all three sizes was approximately 5 business days from order confirmation.

Custom Metric Flange Bolts - Made Using 316 Stainless Steel Material

We supplied our industrial design customer these custom metric flange bolts in two different sizes, M12-1.75 X 35MM and M12 -1.75 X 45MM.  Small batch of 100 pieces in each length was manufactured using our overseas production facility as a test run to allow our customer to test the parts in their mold application prior to a full production run.  Due to the small quantities involved, the parts were machined rather than cold or hot headed.  The machining process is much faster because it avoids lengthy and costly tooling and machinery set up, which would not be cost effective for a small run.

Custom Stainless Steel Precision Pins - 303 Stainless Per AMS 5640 V Type 1

220 pieces of these custom stainless steel precision pins were produced domestically for our aerospace customer using 303 stainless steel material.  Original specifications on the drawing called out for 303 stainless steel per AMS 5638 but we obtained a deviation approval to provide the part using a similar AMS 5640 V Type 1A spec material instead.  Passivation per AMS 2700, method 1, type 4, class 2 was done to complete the parts prior to QC inspection.  Overall length measures at 1.131" +/-.005 and the shaft diameter is set to .074-.075".  The width of the flattened section on one end reaches a diameter of .084" +/- .005.  The other end is rounded at R .078.

Custom 302 Stainless Compression Springs - .030 wire size

We had a small quantity of 250 pieces of these custom 302 stainless compression springs produced domestically, with a lead time of approximately 8 weeks.  .030 wire size was used and the free length was set at 1.5".  Out of the 18 total coils 16 were active and the outside diameter tapered down to .22" from the max outside diameter of .34".

Custom Low Head Metric Screws - M3 X 0.5MM X 3.25MM With Thread Locking Patch in 303 Stainless Steel Material

Custom low head metric screws manufactured domestically using 303 stainless steel material.  The 1/16 hex drive was broached with a 1.5MM drive depth.  Heavy torque blue thread locking patch was applied to conform to a .60 to .33 Nm minimum torque testing.  Head height measured 1.75MM and the width at 9.65MM.  The rounding around the edges of the head was set to R 0.020.  Production samples were provided for customer testing and approval prior to commitment to a full production run.  Lead time for production is 8-10 weeks from confirmed order.  Certificate of conformance, First Article Inspection Report, material cert, and passivation cert were required with the parts per our customer's request.

Custom 6-Lobe Socket Head Cap Screws - 6-32 X 1-1/4 In 18-8 Stainless Steel Material

Custom 6-lobe socket head cap screws manufactured domestically in 18-8 stainless steel material at approximately 8,000 pcs.  Our customer wanted us to provide these custom screws in black oxide finish after running them through ASTM A967 passivation.  Partial unthreaded shoulder was incorporated and the thread was rolled instead of the cut alternative.  Lead time for similar projects is currently running at 8-12 weeks from order confirmation.

Custom Double End Studs In 18-8 Stainless Steel Material - with AA1096 microspheres thread locking patch

These are custom double end studs made using 303 stainless steel (18-8 stainless steel) for our electronics manufacturing customer.  Domestically made at approximately 4,000 pcs these parts were made to the drawing shown below with AA1096 microspheres thread locking feature one the shorter threaded end.  1/4-20 thread was incorporated on the long threaded portion, while 10-24 was used for the shorter end with the thread lock patch.  A #2 square drive was broached on the 1/4-20 side as well.

Custom Deep Recess Phillips Drive Screws - #8 X 2" Phillips Pan Type A Sheet Metal Screws

At first glance these custom deep recess phillips drive screws seem like ordinary sheet metal screws.  For the most part that is true - the Type A thread and head dimensions are essentially per IFI specs without any modifications.  A closer look however will reveal a significantly deeper recess in the phillips drive.  Standard #8 phillips drive for a pan head reaches a depth of .108" while this custom part has a recess depth of .120" to .122" - a significant difference when it comes to improved engagement and faster/easier use on the production floor.  This improvement in speed and engagement was the main driver behind our customer's request for this modified sheet metal screw, particularly important when some of the depth is used for paint when the screw heads are painted a variety of different colors.

Custom Metric 316L Set Screws - M5-0.8 X 6MM Short Dog Point Socket Set Screws

We ran an order of these custom metric 316L set screws with a short dog point at just 66 pieces using domestic production.  Lead time was relatively short at just 2-3 weeks from confirmed purchase order receipt.  A short .059 dog point was incorporated and a 2.5MM hex socket drive was broached for speed and cost efficiency.  Overall length was set at 2.36 inches and the tolerance on all dimensions was set at +/- .005 inches.  Great detail can be seen in the print included here as a reference.

Orange Painted Sheet Metal Screws - #8 X 3/4" in 18-8 Stainless Steel

These orange painted sheet metal screws are one of the brighter and more colorful painted screws we supply our customer base.  Most of the painted screws are in more subdued varieties of white, grey, and brown to match a variety of paneling used by our customers in their respective assembly lines.  The base screw itself is a standard off the shelf 18-8 stainless steel #8 X 3/4" type A sheet metal screw.  Lead time for this color is similar to the others at 2-3 weeks from order confirmation but an expedited processing option is typically available upon request.
