Machining Capabilities
Fastener Insertion
Fastener insertion is the controlled process of installing studs, nuts, or standoffs into metal parts using pressure or heat to create a permanent, high-strength attachment that ensures proper alignment and structural integrity.
Drilling / Threading
Manual drilling and threading produce precise holes and internal threads in metal components using drill presses, taps, and hand tools, ensuring proper alignment, fit, and secure fastening during fabrication.
Counter Sinking
Countersinking is a precision machining process that creates a conical recess in a pre-drilled hole so flat-head fasteners sit flush with or below the metal surface, improving fit, strength, and finished appearance.
FASTENER INSERTION
Fastener Insertion
Fastener insertion is a metal fabrication process used to permanently install threaded fasteners, standoffs, or studs into sheet metal to create strong, reliable attachment points for assembly.
How It Works
Using controlled pressure, the fastener is pressed into a prepared hole where it displaces material to lock securely in place without welding or additional hardware.
Quality & Accuracy
This process ensures precise fastener placement with consistent retention strength while maintaining part flatness and dimensional accuracy.
Benefits
Fastener insertion provides durable, reusable threads and eliminates the need for loose hardware. It is ideal for steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other sheet metals, supporting efficient assembly and long-term performance.
DRILLING / THREADING
Drilling & Threading
Drilling and threading are precision metal fabrication processes used to create accurate holes and internal threads for fasteners and assembly components.
How It Works
Drilling creates holes at specified locations and depths, while threading forms internal threads using taps or thread-forming tools. Proper setup and tooling ensure clean, accurate results.
Quality & Accuracy
These processes produce consistent hole sizes and thread profiles while maintaining tight tolerances and reliable fastener engagement.
Benefits
Drilling and threading provide secure, reusable fastening solutions without additional hardware. They are suitable for steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other metals, supporting both prototype and production fabrication.
COUNTERSINKING
Countersinking
Countersinking is a metal fabrication process used to create a conical recess in a drilled hole, allowing flat-head fasteners to sit flush or slightly below the surface of the material.
How It Works
A countersink cutting tool removes material from the top of an existing hole at a controlled angle and depth to match the fastener head geometry.
Quality & Accuracy
The process produces clean, consistent recesses with accurate alignment, ensuring proper fastener seating and maintaining dimensional integrity.
Benefits
Countersinking improves appearance, safety, and assembly quality by eliminating protruding fastener heads. It is suitable for steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other metals and supports clean, professional finished components.
