Direct fastening into high strength materials
For design engineers looking to optimise assembly efficiency and joint integrity, EJOT’s Industrial Engineering fastener range offers a highly engineered product portfolio specifically tailored for direct fastening into metal. At the heart of this offering are advanced thread forming screws, engineered to eliminate the costly and time-consuming processes of pre-tapping, thread cleaning, and nut assembly.
EJOT’s flagship solutions utilise a specialised trilobular thread cross-section. This unique geometry allows the thread forming screw to smoothly roll its own mating thread into a pre-drilled or punched hole. Because the material is displaced rather than cut, it work-hardens the host metal, creating a high-strength, vibration-resistant joint with excellent strip-out resistance.
The range spans multiple material and substrate specialisms to cover any automotive or industrial application:
Beyond direct assembly fasteners, EJOT provides structural component hardware like heavy-duty thread forming bolts for high-load applications, corrosion-resistant galv screws for structural outdoor frameworks, and stainless steel carriage bolts for smooth, secure exterior finishes.
By standardising on EJOT’s thread-forming bolts and screws, engineering teams can significantly reduce the total cost of ownership. They eliminate tapping machinery wear, slash cycle times, and mitigate the risk of cross-threading on the line, all while securing a structurally superior, fatigue-resistant connection.

The range spans multiple material and substrate specialisms to cover any automotive or industrial application:
- Metric thread forming screws: Designed to create standard ISO metric threads, ensuring seamless structural compatibility and enabling standard machine screws to be used for maintenance if ever required.
- Thread forming screws for aluminium: Optimised for light alloy applications, managing high-clamp loads without inducing high radial stress in cast or extruded components.
- Thread forming screws for steel & thread forming screws for metal: Heavy-duty variants designed to handle high mechanical stresses and thick-walled steel plates.
- Stainless steel thread forming screws: Combining the thread-rolling capability with premium corrosion resistance, crucial for exposed or marine environments.
