Automotive & Auto Components applications
Knurled shafts, rolled threads and precision gears for vehicles and auto ancillaries
Press-fit knurling on motor and pump shafts
A straight knurl on the shaft locks rotor cores, commutators, impellers and couplings in place without keys, adhesives or splines.
Knurled inserts for plastic moulding
Diamond and straight knurls on brass inserts lock them into moulded plastic against pull-out and torque.
Thread rolling of bolts, studs and screws
Thread rolling dies form threads without removing material, giving stronger, smoother threads at high production rates.
Gear hobbing
Hob cutters generate spur and helical gears for gearboxes, pumps, machinery and vehicles.
Grip knurling on knobs, handles and thumb screws
Straight and diamond knurls give a secure, comfortable grip on control knobs, tool handles, adjusters and hand-tightened screws.
Press-in studs and wheel studs
A straight knurl under the head bites into the hole so the stud cannot turn when the nut is tightened.
Spline and serration cutting
Serration cutters and hobs produce splines and serrations on shafts and hubs that transmit torque.
EV and e-axle reduction gears
Precision ground and helical gears for the reduction stage between an electric motor and the wheels.
