Thread angle provides optimum pitch width

1 min read

The Stayplas 30° has been designed for use in thermoplastics and as its name implies, it has a 30° degree thread angle, which according to its maker Staytite provides the optimum pitch width and a high major to minor thread ratio.

The thread profile requires a low insertion torque, whilst providing a high strip out torque and a greater load bearing capacity, the company says. The thread angle also reduces the risk of splitting the material on insertion and provides maximum resistance to vibration. Staytite boasts extensive stocks in a range of sizes, in various head styles, with full batch traceability and extremely competitive prices. In addition, the company is able to supply a range of alternative materials and bespoke designs to customer specifications. Since its formation in 1978, Staytite has gained a reputation for offering a range of high quality, competitively priced fasteners that both save time and add value to production. Last year, the company enjoyed a record year and as a result has further increased its stockholding and added to its product range to meet the needs of its growing customer base. Meet Staytite at the FAST Exhibition SOUTHWEST, 12th May 2011, Haynes Motor Museum near Yeovil.
