S-93580A689 5/16"-18 x 1 1/2" Stainless Steel Press-Fit Studs

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance thanks to 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments.
• Simplified and secure installation with a press-fit design requiring a standard 0.302" drill bit for a precise 0.311" hole.
• Reliable, coarse-thread engagement with 5/16"-18 UNC fully threaded body, ensuring strong, vibration-resistant connections.
• Consistent, high-quality thread fit meeting Class 2A standards for predictable assembly performance and interchangeability.
• Enhanced design flexibility with a right-hand thread direction and a 1 1/2" length, suitable for various panel thicknesses.
• Compliance with global environmental standards, being RoHS 3 compliant for use in regulated markets.
• Durable, fully-threaded design maximizes grip length and provides uniform load distribution.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This stainless steel press-fit stud is engineered to solve common assembly challenges in metal fabrication and electronics enclosures. Its 18-8 stainless steel material offers excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion, extending the lifecycle of products in demanding conditions. The UNC coarse thread and Class 2A thread fit ensure rapid, reliable installation with standard tools, reducing assembly time and labor costs. The press-fit technology eliminates the need for welding or adhesives, providing a strong, permanent thread in sheets as thin as 0.093". This makes the FHS-0518-24 ideal for securing components in industrial machinery, communication racks, and automotive assemblies, where vibration resistance and material integrity are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This stud conforms to UNC coarse thread standards with a Class 2A thread fit for consistent dimensional accuracy. It is designed for a hole diameter of 0.311" with a drill bit diameter of 0.302". The product is manufactured in accordance with industry standards and is RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliant, ensuring it meets strict environmental and safety regulations for hazardous substance restrictions.
