Fasteners .
Its main function is to
hold two or more
pieces of a structure
together
Types of Fasteners
•DETACHABLE
FASTENERS
•THREADED
FASTENERS
• NON-THREADED
FASTENERS
NON-DETACHABLE FASTENER
• Rivest:
• This fastener is perment ,
when once removed ,they
can not be re-used
Press Fits
This fastener is not perment , this can be re-used because have a
adjutable mechanism.
SNAP RINGS AND CLIPS
• Expandable (internal)
• Recruitment (external)
• Electronic clip
• C clip
• Snap rings without holes
in expansion and
contraction styles
Nuts
Most of the nuts used on cap screws are the same hex size as the
cap bolt head.
Some nuts and cap screws use interference fit threads to
prevent accidental loosening. The shape is distorted or a
section of the threads is deformed.
WASHERS
Washers are often used under
cap screw heads and under
walnuts.
Lock nuts
Jam nuts screw on top of a
normal nut and jam
against the regular nut to
prevent loosening
Shrink Fit
It is a bra that includes the
technique of which an
interference fit is
achieved by a relative size
change after mounting.
Adhesive
It is a chemical process that sticks two pieces
Welding
It is a process that uses the melting of metals to create a single
body
Pins-snaprings-Clamps-Clips-Splines-
Keys-Nails
All these fasteners have in common that they are used to secure a
piece, give it fixation for your work
Treaded Fastener
Toolds Hands
It is a tool that does not need an automated power for its
operation, it will only need the motive power of the hand
Wrenches
• Wrenches are the most used hand tool by service techs. Most
are constructed of forged alloy, usually chrome-vanadium steel.
The wrench is formed, hardened, tempered to reduce
brittleness, and then Chrome plated.
Open-end wrench
Open-end wrench An open-end wrench is used for screws or
nuts that do not require a lot of torque. Can be easily placed a
bolt or nut with an angle of 15 degrees.
Box end wrench
A box end wrench, also called a closed end wrench. wrench, it has
two different sizes; one at each end. It is placed on the top and
grab the tips of the bra.
THREAD PITCH GAUGE
A thread pitch gauge is a hand tool
that has the contour of several
Machined thread sizes on stamped
sheets.
To determine the thread step size of
a fastener, the technician matches
the thread of the fastener thread
pitch gauge to fastener threads.
TAPS AND DIES
Taps and dies are used to cut threads
Hammer
It is used to hit a material and thus achieve the union of two pieces
Adjustable Wrench
An adjustable wrench is often used when
the exact size wrench is not available or when a large nut such as
a wheel axle nut must be turned but not tightened.
RATCHETS, SOCKETS AND
EXTENSIONS
A socket fits over the fastener and grips the points and/or flats.
It is rotated (driven) using either a long bar called a breaker bar
(flex handle) or a ratchet.
Pliers
They serve to grab, cut, block something
SCREWDRIVERS
• Many smaller fasteners are removed and installed by using a
screw-driver, available in many sizes and tip shapes.
Files
• Used to smooth metal, files are constructed of hardened steel with
diagonal rows of teeth.
• Files with a single row of teeth are called a single-cut file.
Power Tools
These require a greater force, most are electric
Thank you so much
