New Flowform Screws
Arnold Umformtechnik (Forchtenberg-Ernsbach Germany) has developed Flowform screws in response to the increasingly complex requirements for sheet metal joining. These trilobal (triangular) screws utilise the technology of flow-hole forming in the fabrication process. Flowform is a cost optimised solution that offers higher process reliability for threaded fastener joints and considerable advantages over alternative sheet metal joining methods: ease of loosening, accessibility, positioning, reassembly with threaded fasteners, freedom from fabrication residues. Features include:
Considerably higher pullout and preload forces.
A special triangular cross-section of the fastener.
A trilobal shape, which causes a metric thread to be formed in the host material.
