Originators of the TAPTITE® TRILOBULAR™ Family
of Fasteners Providing Technical & Marketing Support and Innovative
Fastener Design
The TAPTITE® family of thread
rolling fasteners reduces the in-place cost of fastening, lowering the
cost of assembly.
Lowering the Cost of Assembly
TAPTITE 2000®, TAPTITE II® and
DUO-TAPTITE® thread rolling screws reduce in-place costs and
provide vibration resistant assemblies.
TAPTITE 2000®, TAPTITE II® and
DUO-TAPTITE® thread rolling screws are used to create strong,
uniform load carrying internal threads into untapped nut members upon installation.
When reminc developed the original TAPTITE® TRILOBULAR™ shape
thread rolling screw, we revolutionized the use of threaded fasteners in
high production assembly. Assembly efficiency and joint performance along
with lower in-place fastening cost have been the benefits of using TAPTITE® screws.
Now, the new generation of TRILOBULAR™ products, TAPTITE 2000®,
TAPTITE II® and DUO-TAPTITE® screws and
bolts continue these benefits along with meeting contemporary quality and
performance needs.
Lower In-Place Fastening Costs
Only
15% of the total in-place cost of fastening is the cost of the screw
or bolt. The family of TRILOBULAR™ screws and bolts lower the
cost of the remaining 85%. Following is a list of some of the cost-saving
advantages of using TAPTITE 2000®,
TAPTITE II® and DUO-TAPTITE® thread
rolling screws.
Elimination of a separate tapping operation and associated costs
The TRILOBULAR™ shape inherently resists vibrational loosening,
eliminating the need for lock washers, adhesives, or plastic patches
and plugs
Generates stronger mating threads with uninterrupted grain flow due
to work hardening of the nut for higher stripping resistance
Accepts larger pilot hole variations than drilled and tapped holes
Works in punched, drilled, cored and extruded holes in many different
metals
With use of CORFLEX® metallurgy, can be provided
in grade strengths of high tensile bolts for use in structural applications
in deep thread lengths of engagement
The TAPTITE® family of thread rolling fasteners can
typically form threads in nut members contaminated with paint, primer
or weld splatter with no sectionary operation.
No assembly line cross-threading
Prevailing torque often equals or exceeds locking screw standards
Over 18 billion TRILOBULAR™ fasteners are manufactured each
year. These fasteners are manufactured to reminc/CONTI standards all
over the world by over 70 of the world's leading fastener manufacturers,
fastener processing and tooling companies.
