Full threaded Rods are non headed bolts, these are in form of a rod and have threads from end to end. These stud bolts are generally provided with double nuts and often with 4 nuts depending upon the application and requirements of the project or customer. Additionally washers can also be provided along with these stud bolts. These stud bolts are manufactured by us in carbon steel and stainless steel. Popular carbon steel grades include A 193 and A 320. The requirements for these are mentioned in the American standard A 193 and A 320.

We can offer surface finishing as per customer requirement in hot dip galvanising, we take special care to ensure there is no hydrogen embrittlement in 10.9 grade with our special curing system which ensures that 10.9-grade bolts are not damaged by hydrogen embrittlement post-galvanising process. We also do zinc electroplated in blue, yellow or black colours as per customer requirements.
Special coatings in specific industries require zinc flake coatings, these coatings are done as per ISO 10683, depending upon the customer’s requirement for salt spray life we offer coating systems from NOF Japan from Germany, these coatings are provided with the help and support of our partners who have the required license and have successfully done validations with our existing customers. Salt spray life can vary from 500 to 1500 hours.
The Highlights of this coating is that it gives
- Low friction CoF as low as 0.02.
- High corrosion and chemical resistance in most environments including marine and Oil & Gas
- “Wide temperature operating range: from -420° to +550°F (-250° to 285°C)”
- “Wide color range: color-code your product”
- Machinability: apply multiple coats coating (most formulations) and mill to specification
- Wear resistance is very high, even under extreme pressures.
- Weather resistance: against sunlight, salt water and road chemicals
- Flexible curing schedule: ambient to 750°F (400°C).
- Pliability: Many Xylan coatings will bend freely and repeatedly without breaking.
- “Salt spray SST life: above 1000 hrs.”
Applications
Our stud bolts are used in flange joints, pumping stations, for petrochemical projects and oil & gas projects including cross country pipe lines. We are the only Indian company who has an approval with CHEVRON in USA and we are on the TAMAP list of Chevron in india as their approved vendors for supplies of stud bolts & nuts.
Manufacturing
- Cutting
- Chamfering
- Heat treatment
- Thread rolling
These stud bolts are first cut as per customer requirement and then the ends are chamfered to specs at 45 degrees, We then do heat treatment on them in our factory using an advanced SQF-sealed quench heat treatment furnace from Japan, the heat treatment furnace is controlled and provides 100% repeatability batch after batch. The heat treatment result is perfect martensite after hardening and gives perfect results after tempering as per standard requirements. After heat treatment we complete the thread rolling and then coating as per customer requirement and then final assembly.
