Product Description

The unthreaded turned down section allows for the part to be secured to the circuit board via a swaging process. The swaging of the part curls the part back onto the board. This curled section keeps the part firmly in place. Parts are thoroughly tested to ensure that proper swaging will not cause excessive cracking or flaking. The hex shape allows for greater torquing as the flat sides allow for wrench tightening. Steel is inexpensive, easy to achieve finer surface quality requirements and provides relatively high strength properties. Multiple plating options are available to increase the material's corrosion resistance and alter its appearance.
