Custom Inconel 718 Double Thread Offset Aerospace Bolts

 

Custom Inconel 718 Double Thread Offset Aerospace Studs
Custom custom Inconel 718 double thread offset studs were manufactured for our aerospace customer.  The offset head, double thread, and hardness of material made these parts extremely difficult to manufacture.  The head radius measured .203" and a combination of 5/16-24 2A and 1/4-28 2A thread was cut to a length of .842".  Definitely one of the toughest parts we have dealt with - the hardness of the material created countless issues with tool life.  Full certs with FAIR were provided with the parts.

Custom Automotive Hex Flange Bolts

 

Custom Automotive Long Hex Flange Bolt Manufacturers


These custom long automotive hex flange bolts were manufactured for our customer to Grade 10.9 specifications with black zinc finish.  100MM of M13-1.75MM thread was rolled behind a 84MM unthreaded shoulder.  The flange diameter was set to 50MM and the hex above to 19MM across the flats.  Black zinc finish is good for corrosion resistance but is always cosmetically tricky due to the imperfections you get on the surface from the bake process, as well as the tumbling of large parts during packaging and transport.
