Product Description
M12 A2 Stainless Steel Double End Studs – DIN 938
These M12 double end studs are manufactured from A2 stainless steel to DIN 938. Each stud has a short screw-in thread at one end, a plain centre section and a longer thread for fitting a matching nut at the other end.
Both ends have an M12 x 1.75mm metric coarse thread. The short threaded end is 12mm long, corresponding to the DIN 938 screw-in end length of approximately one nominal thread diameter.
Important Length Information
The listed stud length excludes the 12mm short threaded end. For example, an M12 x 40mm stud comprises a 30mm nut-end thread, a 10mm plain section and an additional 12mm short thread, giving approximately 52mm overall length.
