Custom Aerospace Socket Screws - NA0069A040046 Socket Head Cap Screws in 1250 MPA A286 Material

Custom Aerospace Socket Screws - NA0069A040046 Socket Head Cap Screws in 1250 MPA A286 Material

These are custom aerospace socket screws we had domestically produced for our aerospace customer at 50 pieces.  The trickiest part was the 1250 MPA requirement that our customer insisted on, which is a deviation from the standard NA0069A040046 specification.  We were able to supply the custom part faster than our original promise date at approximately 3 weeks from order receipt.  M4-0.7 thread was incorporated and test results confirmed 39-40 HRC after AMS 2759/3 Rev. F heat treat process.  NADCAP certified passivation per AMS-2700 was also performed and all certifications were provided to our customer with the parts.

Custom Metric Socket Cap Screw - M2-0.4M X 6MM Socket Head Cap Screws In DFAR Compliant 303 Stainless Steel

These are M2 X 6MM DFARS compliant socket cap screws whose simplicity in look is misleading to say the least.  We were tasked to replicate our customers existing samples and the combination of the hex broach dimensions and depth together with the countersunk angle required a different approach than a standard flat socket head screw.  The part was initially made like a standard socket cap screw without the countersink, broached to required depth, and then machined down for the countersunk angle.  Finally the part was then threaded and passivated.
