Thread Rolling Screws for Metal

What are Thread Rolling Screws?

Thread rolling screws create an external mating thread by displacing material rather than cutting it.

Their three-lobe or trilobular thread design forces excess material into relief areas during installation, allowing the screw to form a thread as it is inserted.

This rolling process avoids the loose chips associated with conventional thread cutting and provides a good surface finish.

Because the screw forms the thread during installation, separate thread tapping is not required.

Why Use Thread Rolling Screws?

Thread rolling screws are widely used in manufacturing where efficient assembly and secure fastening are important.

Their thread design helps provide:

• Resistance to pull-out and vibration
• Chip-free thread formation
• Good surface finish
• Installation without separate tapping
• Installation without nuts or inserts in suitable applications

This makes thread rolling screws suitable for production and assembly environments where repeatability and fastening performance are required.
