In the aerospace industry, there is little room for error. Aircraft and spacecraft components are exposed to extreme forces, vibration, temperature changes, and repeated cycles of stress. Every part must perform as expected, making the strength and reliability of threaded components critical.
Rolled Threads Unlimited produces precision threaded components designed for demanding applications, including fully threaded bar, custom machined parts, fully threaded and double-ended studs, bolts, lead screws, and specialty fasteners. Our ability to thread challenging materials makes us a trusted resource for customers requiring dependable components for aerospace applications.
Strength Starts with the Thread
Threaded components are often responsible for holding critical assemblies together.
Unlike thread cutting, which removes material to create the thread form, thread rolling forms threads by displacing material under pressure. This cold-forming process helps preserve the material’s grain flow while creating a dense, durable thread.
The result is a stronger thread that is better equipped to handle the demanding conditions common in aerospace applications.
Improved Fatigue Resistance and Reliability
Aerospace components experience repeated cycles of stress throughout their service life. Over time, repeated loading can contribute to fatigue and mechanical failure.
The thread rolling process improves fatigue resistance by creating a smooth thread form and strengthening the material through cold working. Because the material is formed rather than cut away, rolled threads can provide the durability needed for components that must perform consistently over time.
Built for High-Performance Materials
Aerospace applications require materials that can withstand extreme environments. These materials are often difficult to machine.
Rolled Threads Unlimited has the capability to thread super alloys, aerospace grades, non-standard stainless steel, titanium, and nickel alloys with a hardness up to 42 Rockwell.
Our experience with these challenging materials helps ensure customers get the precision threaded components they need without compromising on quality.
Consistency Is Critical
Consistency is just as important as strength in aerospace manufacturing. Components must meet precise specifications and perform reliably from one part to the next.
Our quality management system is focused on consistently providing products that meet customer needs and specifications. Our quality policy centers on complete customer satisfaction through on-time delivery and defect-free products.
We work to provide dependable solutions for the most demanding applications by identifying the processes needed to meet quality and delivery requirements.
