Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 8-32 UNC stainless steel press-fit studs address critical challenges in sheet metal assembly by eliminating the need for welding or tapping. The 18-8 stainless steel material offers excellent corrosion resistance, prolonging service life in humid or chemical-exposed settings. With a precision hole diameter of 0.163" and tight tolerance, the studs prevent loosening under vibration, common in electronics enclosures, automotive panels, and machinery frames. The fully threaded coarse UNC design ensures quick fastening with standard Class 2A thread fit, reducing labor costs while maintaining high pull-out strength. Ideal for industries requiring RoHS compliant fasteners, this solution enhances reliability in high-volume production lines.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This stud features a 0.252" base diameter and 3/4" length with 21/32" thread length, manufactured to UNC coarse thread standards and Class 2A external thread fit for consistent dimensional accuracy. It complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) regulations, ensuring adherence to environmental and safety requirements. The design supports installation in materials as thin as 0.04" with a 9/32" minimum edge distance, following industry best practices for press-fit fastener applications.
