Taptite® Fasteners Technical Data
Taptite fasteners roll-form threads as they are driven.
|
|
|
|
- SPC provides a controlled process
- Tri-lobular thread form
- Tight dimensional tolerance controls
- Consistent thread profile
- Sizes from M1.6 to M16 (000-90 to 5/8-11")
|
- Eliminates tapping costs
- Resists vibration loosening to IFI-124 and 524 standards
- Lower, more consistent drive torque
- Excellent drive-to-fail ratio
- Generates strong mating threads
- Eliminates cross-threading
- High prevailing torque
|
MAG-FORMTM Fasteners
Patented MAG-FORM fasteners are specially designed for use in low ductile materials, such as magnesium.
|
|
|
|
- Lobular configuration
- Wide-spaced thread design
- Broad flank angle
- Utilizes compressive action to form threads
|
- Minimizes debris generation
- Doesn't overstress workpiece
- Formed threads in workpiece remain intact
- Multiple insertions and removals are possible, allowing service in the field
|
