S-93580A672 10-24 x 1 1/4" Stainless Steel Press-Fit Studs

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Enhanced Corrosion Resistance: Crafted from 18-8 stainless steel for reliable performance in demanding environments, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
• Superior Grip and Vibration Resistance: Fully threaded UNC coarse design ensures maximum engagement and helps prevent loosening under dynamic loads.
• Streamlined Installation: Press-fit design allows for quick, tool-less insertion into 0.189" pre-drilled holes, significantly cutting down assembly time.
• Precision Fit for Secure Fastening: Class 2A thread fit and controlled hole size tolerance (0.000" to 0.003") guarantee a consistent, secure connection in sheet metal applications.
• Robust Design for Thin Materials: With a minimum material thickness requirement of just 0.04", it is ideal for securing lightweight and thin-gauge assemblies.
• Environmental Compliance: Meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) standards, ensuring the product is free from hazardous substances for use in regulated industries.
• Versatile Right-Hand Threading: Standard right-hand, coarse threads provide broad compatibility with common nuts and tapped holes, simplifying inventory and assembly.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 10-24 UNC stainless steel press-fit stud is engineered to solve critical challenges in sheet metal assembly and other industrial fastening applications. Its 18-8 stainless steel construction offers excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, which is vital for electronics enclosures, automotive components, and outdoor equipment exposed to harsh conditions. The fully threaded and coarse thread design maximizes pull-out strength and resists vibrational loosening, a common failure point in machinery. The press-fit technology eliminates the need for additional locking elements or welding, enabling a faster, cleaner, and more cost-effective production line. By specifying a precise 0.189" drill bit diameter and Class 2A thread fit, it ensures a reliable, repeatable installation every time, reducing the risk of assembly errors and improving overall product durability.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This stud conforms to UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread standards with a Class 2A tolerance for external threads, ensuring dimensional accuracy and interchangeability. It is designed for a hole diameter of 0.189" (No. 12 drill bit) with a tight hole size tolerance of 0.000" to 0.003" for a secure press-fit. The product is manufactured in compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU), confirming it is free from restricted hazardous substances. The specified minimum material thickness is 0.04" and the minimum length from the hole center to the sheet edge is 9/32" to ensure optimal performance and material integrity.
