Why Rolled Threads?

Customers can count on high production rates, cost-effectiveness, and reduced waste.

Manufacturers across a range of industries are increasingly favoring rolled threads over alternatives like cutting, chasing, or grinding, thanks to several distinct advantages.

BY THE NUMBERS

Improved Strength & Fatigue Resistance

The strength and fatigue resistance characteristics of rolled threads set them apart from other metals.

The cold-worked process of rolling threads often strengthens the material by up to 30%. Threads produced through rolling also typically exhibit 50-75% greater fatigue strength, as the process eliminates potential surface imperfections that could lead to fatigue failure.

Efficient, Cost-Effective & Environmentally-Friendly

Not only does thread rolling offer efficiency in mass production due to its high-speed nature, producing threads in seconds, it also proves cost-effective.

The process reduces labor costs, functions up to 10 times faster than other methods, and results in high-quality threads with minimal variation, decreasing the likelihood of rejects and rework. Moreover, thread rolling's material displacement minimizes waste, making it an environmentally-friendly and efficient choice for high-volume threaded fastener manufacturing.
