Custom Aluminum Diecast Fittings - ADC12 Aluminum Alloy

 

These custom trim aluminum diecast fittings for our lighting fixture customer were manufactured using ADC12 Aluminum Alloy material with plain finish.  Overall diameter measured 5.75" and the inside opening diameter measured 2.55".  2,500 pieces were produced in the first production run and a small partial was provided prior to the full balance.  Annual blanket purchase agreements are ideal for this type of part due to the space and cash output required to bring in the full amount in one shipment - we would instead spread out the annual usage over 12 months and invoice as parts are shipped out.

Custom Shoulder Bolts For Gun Manufacturer - .185 X .500 Black Oxide

 

We had approximately 120,000 pieces of these custom shoulder bolts manufactured domestically in the USA for our gun manufacturing customer.  The shoulder measured .185 X 1/2 and 8-32 thread was rolled.  To save on cost we incorporated a convex relief underneath the head in leu of a machined relief, allowing us to complete the entire head portion with cold heading.  The shoulder was centerless ground to a +/-.001 diameter tolerance and we also made sure to meet the .127/.125 across flats requirement on the 1/8 hex socket drive, which was a critical feature for optimal key engagement.  Full certs were provided with the parts.
