Additional Information for Shouldered And Stepped Stud
Shouldered and stepped studs are types of fasteners commonly used in construction and engineering applications. They are part of the supply class "Studs" in the supply group "Hardware and Abrasives."
A shouldered stud is a threaded rod with a shoulder or collar at one end. The shoulder provides a stopping point for the stud when it is inserted into a hole or tapped into a threaded hole. This allows for precise positioning and prevents the stud from going all the way through the material.
A stepped stud, on the other hand, has different diameter sections along its length. It typically has a larger diameter at one end and gradually tapers down to a smaller diameter at the other end. The stepped design allows for different components or materials to be securely fastened together.
Both shouldered and stepped studs are commonly used in applications where a strong and reliable connection is required. They can be used in various industries such as construction, automotive, machinery, and more.
