Custom Flange Nuts In 17-4PH Stainless Steel Material

These custom flange nuts were manufactured domestically using 17-4PH stainless steel material with 10-24 internal thread.  Overall height of the flange nut was .19" +/-.01" and the diameter of the flange was a critical dimension at .330" +.000/-.015".  The hex was set to .250" +.000/-.005" across the flats.  Our internal part number is NRNS-10-117-4 and typical lead time for full production is 6-8 weeks from order confirmation.

Custom Binding Post - Female In 316 Stainless Steel Material With 6Lobe (Torx Alternative) Drive

These custom binding posts were manufactured using 316 stainless steel material, with 3/8 coarse internal thread tapped as close to the head as possible and a T30 drive cold headed all the way through.  The head diameter is 1.13" head height at .19" +/- .01".  The shoulder outside diameter is set to .63" and measures .75" in length, with both dimensions also limited to a +/-.01" tolerance.  4340 alloy steel material was also considered as an alternative, offering greater strength when heat treated than the 316 stainless steel material version pictured here.

Custom Low Head Slotted Machine Screws - 8-32 X .375" In 12L14 Steel

These custom low head slotted machine screws were manufactured domestically using 12L14 steel material and then run through a commercial black oxide process.  Length under the head was set at .375" +/-.03", fully threaded with 8-32 thread pitch.  The head height was set at .055", diameter at .265", slot width at .05", and slot depth at .042".  Our internal part number for this item is MSF-0806-AF and while lead time varies quite a bit depending on production volume required, we typically budget 6-8 weeks from order confirmation.

Metallic Silver Painted Machine Screws - 10-24 X 1" COTS Stainless Steel Machine Screws

These custom matched metallic silver painted machine screws are supplied to our long time customer in annual quantities of approx. 150,000 pieces using a revolving blanket purchase order.  A standard off the shelf 18-8 stainless steel 10-24 X 1 machine screw is used, which is typically manufactured in Taiwan or mainland China, and the painting and sealing of the heads is done domestically in the USA to maintain the desired finish quality.  Typical lead time for this type of painting work is 4-5 weeks from the placement of order.

Custom Aerospace Compression Springs - 17-7PH Stainless Steel Material

We supply these custom aerospace compression springs to our aerospace components manufacturing customer.  17-7PH stainless steel material is used for the domestic production of these parts, per AMS 5673-F.  Our production runs are typically in the smaller 500 piece quantity range for this specific spring, with lead time at 8-10 weeks.  That lead time includes passivation per AMS QQ-P-35, and penetrant inspection per ASTM E 1417 Type I, Method A, Sensitivity L-3.  Each one of those two processes typically takes about 1 week to complete.

Custom Beryllium Copper Wave Washers

We supplied our customer 10,000 pcs of these custom beryllium copper wave washers.  They were manufactured domestically in the USA with a relatively long lead time of 14-16 weeks due to the material procurement timing involved.  The ID measures .140 +/- .005" and the OD when flat measures .490 +/-.01".  Thickness of the material is .020 +/-.0004" and the outside height post stamping is .080 +/- .080".  Max load is 26.667 pounds and the max deflection is set at .015.  Parts had to be vacuum aged for 2 hours at 600 degrees to complete the production process.

Custom Precision Flange Bushings In Stainless Steel Material

These custom precision flange bushings were produced domestically in the USA using 18-8 stainless steel material.  The overall length measured .630" +/-.01" and the part incorporated both an external flange and an external flange per customer supplied drawings.  The OD on the barrel portion is .5" and .585" at the external flange, both with the same +/-.01" tolerance.  ID on the inside barrel portion is .45".  These parts were used in an audio product manufacturing application by our customer.

Custom Threaded Stainless Pins - M3 & 10-32 Thread

These are tiered custom threaded stainless pins created for an audio equipment manufacturer in 18-8 stainless steel material.  Production was done domestically with a lead time of 5-6 weeks from order.  The overall length of the part is at 1.4" inclusive of .90" of M3 coarse thread and .37" of 10-32 thread.  Multiple shoulder steps were incorporated per our customer's specifications and the drive-less head measures .50" for the OD and .066" for the height.  The next iteration of this part will likely incorporate a thicker head and a slotted drive.

Custom Length Shoulder Bolts In Stainless Steel - 1/4 X 1"

We supplied these custom length shoulder bolts to our audio device manufacturer.  The shoulder bolt is essentially an off-the-shelf 1/4 X 1 shoulder bolt with 10-24 rolled thread in 18-8 stainless steel material.  Our customer was unable to use this version as-is due to the combined length of threaded portion and the machined fillet preceding it.  In order to make use these parts that combined length had to be at .24"  +/- .01".  As a relatively simple operation we ran these parts through a cut and chamfer operation to get them to the correct length.  Lead time for this operation was 1-2 weeks from receipt of the off-the-shelf version.

Custom Low Head Socket Cap Screws - M5-0.8 X 28MM and 33MM

We supplied these custom low head socket cap screws in alloy steel material with black oxide finish.  Two different lengths were required by our customer - 28MM and 33MM under the head.  We used COTS version of this DIN7984 socket cap screw at 35MM as the base part, then cutting and chamfering the parts to the appropriate lengths.  The last step was the black oxide process - we mixed both sizes together to minimize the per piece cost to our customer.
