Bespoke cold-formed fastening elements for a virtually unlimited range of applications
Precision Cold-Formed Parts
For design engineers navigating the complexities of modern fastening technology, EJOT’s Industrial Engineering Precision Cold-Formed Parts offer a masterclass in structural integrity and geometric versatility. Cold forming manipulates metal below its recrystallisation temperature, forcing the material to flow into precise shapes under immense pressure. By preserving the continuous grain flow of the metal rather than cutting through it, this manufacturing methodology yields components with superior tensile strength, exceptional fatigue resistance, and remarkably tight dimensional tolerances.
EJOT’s robust product offering bridges the gap between standard fasteners and highly customised, multi-stage specialised components. Their portfolio encompasses complex solid parts, stepped pins, knurled bushings, and customised cold forming screws. These screws are engineered to optimise assembly times and reduce system costs by eliminating the need for pre-tapping or secondary thread-cutting operations. Whether creating components with intricate undercuts or demanding eccentric geometries, EJOT’s multi-station forming technology minimises material waste, a stark contrast to traditional subtractive machining methods like turning or milling.
For the design engineer, the benefits extend far beyond material efficiency. Integrating EJOT's precision components allows you to consolidate multiple parts into a single, cohesive cold-formed piece. This reduction in part count directly translates to:
By partnering with EJOT during the early design phases, engineers can leverage advanced simulation tools to optimise material selection, ranging from carbon steels to aluminium and ensure that every cold-formed element is perfectly tailored to the demanding application limits of automotive, electronic, or industrial engineering systems.

- Minimised assembly risk: Fewer joints mean fewer potential points of failure in high-vibration or load-bearing environments.
- Streamlined supply chains: Reducing bill-of-materials (BOM) complexity simplifies procurement and quality control.
- Optimised lightweighting: Enhanced material strength allows for thinner wall dimensions and smaller overall footprints without sacrificing structural safety.
