• Precision base diameter and hole size tolerance guarantee a tight, vibration-resistant press-fit for secure fastening in 0.137" diameter holes.
• Fully threaded, right-hand design offers maximum thread engagement and versatility for a wide range of attachment needs.
• RoHS 3 compliance meets stringent environmental regulations, making it suitable for global markets and eco-conscious supply chains.
• Optimized for thin materials with a 0.04" minimum thickness requirement, ideal for lightweight sheet metal assemblies.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This zinc-plated steel press-fit stud is engineered to solve common challenges in sheet metal assembly, where traditional fastening methods can lead to stripped threads or loose connections. The press-fit design creates a permanent, high-retention force in pre-drilled holes, eliminating the need for welding, adhesives, or tapped threads. This is critical in electronics enclosures, automotive brackets, and machinery panels, where vibration resistance and assembly speed are paramount. The fully threaded 6-32 UNC coarse thread provides robust performance, while the zinc plating adds a protective barrier against corrosion, ensuring durability in harsh conditions. By integrating this stud, manufacturers achieve faster production cycles, reduced component count, and enhanced structural integrity.
