Thread formers used in metal applications

Thread formers used in metal applications

Thread-forming screws are necessary fasteners used in metal applications. They make threads by pushing material out of the way without making chips. This makes them perfect for materials that crack or break, like metals. Classic Fasteners LLC offers a wide range of thread formers for various metal applications. 

There are various types of thread formers used in metal applications. We will discuss each of these types below:

Taptite is a type of thread-forming screw that is designed for use in soft metals like aluminum, magnesium, and copper alloys. Its threads are made in a unique way that makes them secure in these materials without damaging the threads.

Taptite PRO is an improved version of Taptite that is made to work better and last longer in high-stress situations. It has a larger root diameter, which makes the threads stronger and makes them less likely to shake.

Taptite PRO SP is a self-piercing screw designed for high-strength materials like steel and titanium. Its unique tread design lets it cut through materials without having to first drill holes in them. This saves time and money.

Taptite 2000 is a high-performance screw that is designed for use in demanding applications. It has a unique thread design that makes it more resistant to vibration and less likely to strip or cross-thread.

Taptite 2000 CA is a version of Taptite 2000 designed for corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel and aluminum. It has a special coating that protects it well from corrosion and other things in the environment.

Fastite 2000 is a self-tapping screw designed for use in metals with low elasticity. It has a unique thread design that allows it to create its threads without the need for pre-drilling or tapping, which reduces the risk of material damage.

Duo-Taptite is a two-piece screw designed for the greatest reliability and performance in high-stress applications. It has a unique thread design that makes it more resistant to vibration and less likely to strip or cross-thread.

Taptite II is a type of thread-forming screw that is designed for use in low-strength metals like aluminum and zinc. It has a unique thread design provides a secure fastening without damaging the threads or the material.

Extrude-Tite is a type of thread-forming screw that is designed for use in hard metals like steel and titanium. It has a unique thread design that makes it more resistant to vibration and less likely to strip or cross-thread.

Powerlok is a type of thread-forming screw that is designed for use in high-torque applications. It has a unique thread design that provides the most vibration resistance. It reduces the risk of thread stripping and cross-threading.
