Fasteners are the core of connection components, including bolts, screws, and nuts. Proper selection directly affects product assembly efficiency and reliability.
Fastener Type Selection
Bolts
Bolts are one of the most common fasteners. Hex bolts are most versatile, flange bolts suit applications requiring locking, and socket head bolts fit space-limited situations.
Consider strength grade, head shape, and thread specification when selecting.
Screws
Screws typically do not require nuts and directly engage with the workpiece. Machine screws need matching nuts or threaded holes, self-tapping screws can directly tap into thin sheets.
Nuts
Nuts work with bolts or screws. Hex nuts are most versatile, flange nuts suit locking applications.
Standard Selection
Different countries and regions have different fastener standards, such as ISO (International), DIN (Europe), JIS (Japan), and ANSI (USA).
Lingyufab can produce fasteners meeting JIS, DIN, ISO, ANSI, and other standards.
Material and Surface Treatment
Common materials include carbon steel and stainless steel. Carbon steel has high strength but requires surface treatment; stainless steel has better corrosion resistance.
Surface treatment methods include zinc plating for general rust prevention and nickel-chromium for electronic product decoration and corrosion resistance.
Key Parameters
When selecting, determine:
Thread specification (M3, M4, M5, M6, M8, etc.)
Length
Strength grade
Material
Surface treatment
Fastener selection should consider material, assembly method, usage environment, and maintenance needs.
