Type: | Stud Bolt |
Definition: | A stud bolt is a mechanical fastener having external threads without a head. The external thread is either for the full length of the stud or partially threaded from each end. It uses at least two nuts, one on each side for assembly connection. Stud bolts are available in various sizes, types, and threading patterns. |
Description: | What is the difference between a bolt and a stud bolt? Design: A bolt has a threaded shaft with a head on one end, while a stud bolt has threads on both ends, with a plain shank in the middle. Purpose: Bolts are designed to be threaded into a single component or material, while stud bolts are used to connect two components or materials together with a nut on each end. |
Application: | Stud Bolt usually is used in high pressure bolting situations for pipeline, drilling, petroleum / petrochemical refining and general industry for sealing and flange connections all thread, tap end and double end stud bolts are the lion's share of the industry. Threaded rod, often referred to as a stud, is a rod of varying length that is threaded in a helical structure. |
Others: | ASME B16. 5 is primarily the dimensional standard for ASTM Stud bolts. This defines the Dimensional requirement primarily i.e. length and the diameter of stud Bolt to be used for the tightening of flanges. |
