Why do we have to choose customized threaded rods?
Do you have such confusion that finished threaded rod often fails to meet your expectations in terms of performance, adaptability, or efficiency. Customized threaded rods can be adjusted according to your specific application needs. Whether you are engaged in the research and development of construction, CNC machine tools, robots, medical equipment, automated production lines, or harsh environmental equipment, we can meet your needs.
1. Material customization
Choose the ideal material based on your application load, temperature, and environmental requirements. FIXDEX&GOODFIX offer a variety of high-quality materials, including:
-Stainless steel (303, 316 series): suitable for corrosion-resistant applications, medical equipment, and food processing machinery, with excellent durability and hygiene performance.
-Carbon steel and alloy steel (4140 series): Very suitable for high load industrial applications, and can choose heat treatment to improve hardness (HRC 45-55) and strength.
-Aluminum: a lightweight option suitable for applications that require extremely high weight, such as aerospace or portable automation equipment. When using a hollow design, the overall component weight can be reduced by up to 50%.
-Special materials: titanium, bronze, and customized plastic blends (PEEK, polyetheretherketone, nylon/Kevlar), suitable for extreme temperatures (-40 ° F to 550 ° F) or special performance requirements.
2. Customization of threads and dimensions
Each thread and size is precisely designed according to your specific requirements to ensure optimal motion control and compatibility.
-Thread types: ACME thread, trapezoidal thread, high helix thread, or custom thread shape – tailored to your movement speed, load capacity, and precision requirements.
-Diameter and length: The diameter range is from 3 millimeters to 50 millimeters, and the longest length can reach 2 meters. Customized lengths can also be provided according to requirements.
-Lead and thread count: Customizable lead size (0.5 mm to 50 mm) and single/multi head threads to control motion speed and positioning accuracy, with an accuracy of up to ± 0.20~0.25 mm/300 mm.
-End processing: Customizable thread processing, milling, turning, wrench flat processing or journal processing for seamless connection with motors (NEMA stepper motors, DC motors) or other components.
3. Surface treatment and lubrication
We offer customized surface treatment and lubrication solutions to enhance durability, reduce friction, and extend service life:
-Surface coating: black oxide, nickel plating, chrome plating Cerakote ™ Or anti-corrosion treatment can effectively resist harsh environments, moisture, and wear.
-Lubrication: Self lubricating design (PTFE, TFE dry film) or customized lubrication groove can maintain oil film continuity, reduce temperature rise, and minimize noise (≤ 45dB).
-Heat treatment: carburizing, induction hardening or nitriding treatment can enhance material strength and wear resistance, ensuring long-term reliable operation in high load applications.
4. Nut customization
Nuts and screws are equally important – we offer comprehensive nut customization services to meet your screw and application needs:
-Materials: plastic (polyetheretherketone, polyetheretherketone), metal (bronze, aluminum) or composite materials to achieve optimal performance and compatibility.
-Design: Machining or injection molding of nuts, anti backlash design, or customized shapes to fit narrow spaces or integrate other components, thereby reducing the overall Bill of Materials (BOM).
-Integration: The embedded molding of metal components or the hybrid design that combines nuts with components such as gears and guide rail supports.
