Light metal screw connections by Arnold
Space is at a premium in many automotive applications. As a result, less and less installation space is available for bolted connections.

The thread-forming Powertite is characterized by a higher load-bearing capacity of the screw compared to conventional products on the market. Thanks to a slightly increased stress cross-section, which corresponds to the level of the standardized stress cross-section of a metric screw, it can generate higher tensile breaking forces. © Arnold Umformtechnik
The Powertite screw is a round thread-forming screw with a polygonal groove tip and a trilobular groove zone. The round load-bearing cross-section has a defined oversize. © Arnold Umformtechnik
