Product Overview

What Is a High-Tensile Double End Threaded Stud (DIN 939)?

A Double End Threaded Stud (DIN 939) is a precision-machined fastener with threads on both ends and a plain shank in the middle. One end — the metal-end — is permanently screwed into a tapped hole in a base component (engine block, flange, housing), while the nut-end protrudes to accept a nut for clamping the mating component. The DIN 939 standard specifies the engagement length on the metal-end as 1.25 × nominal diameter, making it suitable for softer host materials such as aluminium, cast iron, and non-ferrous alloys.

High-Tensile En8 Grade Steel (equivalent to C45 / AISI 1045) is the most widely specified material for threaded studs due to its excellent mechanical properties — tensile strength of 700–850 MPa and good machinability. At OM Engineering Works, we manufacture DIN 939 double end threaded studs on advanced CNC precision turned components lines and Traub automatic lathes at our Bhayandar, Mumbai facility, supported by full CNC machining infrastructure and inspection capability — delivering consistent thread geometry, dimensional accuracy, and a corrosion-resistant zinc plated finish across all production volumes.

Our manufacturing capability covers M6 to M64 metric threads, UNC from ¼" to 2½", as well as custom thread forms such as BSP, UNF, BA, and whitworth — all produced to DIN 939, DIN 938, ISO 4026, or customer-specified drawings.

Common Applications of Double End Threaded Studs:

  • Automotive & Engine Assembly: Cylinder head studs, exhaust manifold studs, intake manifold fasteners, engine block mounting
  • Heavy Engineering & Machinery: Flange bolting, gearbox housing assembly, pump casing fasteners, compressor head studs
  • Oil & Gas Pipelines: Pressure vessel flange connections, valve bonnet studs, heat exchanger shell-and-tube assembly
  • Power Generation: Turbine casing studs, generator end-bracket fastening, boiler flange connections
  • Construction & Infrastructure: Anchor bolts, structural steel connections, precast concrete panel fastening
  • Agricultural & Off-Road Equipment: PTO shaft studs, hydraulic pump mounting, cab frame fasteners

DIN 939 vs DIN 938 — Key Differences:

  • DIN 939: Metal-end engagement length = 1.25 × nominal diameter — recommended for aluminium, cast iron, and softer host materials
  • DIN 938: Metal-end engagement length = 1.0 × nominal diameter — used when the host material is steel or hard alloy
  • Custom Engagement Lengths: We also manufacture studs with 1.5d, 2.0d, or fully custom engagement lengths as per application drawing

Why Use Threaded Studs Instead of Bolts?

Threaded studs offer critical advantages in high-vibration, high-temperature, and frequent-removal applications — especially in assemblies manufactured using custom engineered CNC components for automotive and heavy engineering systems.

Common Questions

DIN 939 High-Tensile Threaded Stud — FAQs

A double end threaded stud (DIN 939) is a fastener with threads on both ends and an unthreaded shank in the centre. The metal-end — with an engagement length of 1.25 × nominal diameter per DIN 939 — is screwed permanently into a tapped hole in the base component (e.g. engine block, pump housing). The protruding nut-end then accepts a nut or a second component that slides over the stud, secured with a nut and washer. This design eliminates the need to pass a bolt through the entire assembly and protects the tapped thread in the base component from wear during repeated removal and re-installation.

The difference lies in the metal-end (plant-in end) engagement length: DIN 938 specifies a metal-end length of 1.0 × nominal diameter, intended for use in steel or hard alloy host materials where a shorter engagement provides sufficient pull-out strength. DIN 939 specifies a metal-end length of 1.25 × nominal diameter, designed for softer host materials such as aluminium, grey cast iron, brass, and non-ferrous alloys, where the longer engagement compensates for the lower thread bearing strength of the material. We manufacture both standards, and also custom engagement lengths (1.5d, 2.0d) as per your application drawing.

Pricing depends on material grade (En8 vs En19 vs SS 316), nominal diameter and length, thread form, surface finish, and order quantity. Standard En8 zinc-plated metric studs in moderate quantities (500–1000 pcs) are highly cost-competitive from our Mumbai facility. High-alloy (En19, SS316) or heat-treated grades carry a material premium. We encourage you to share your drawing or specification via our quote form or WhatsApp — we provide detailed quotations within 24–48 hours with no obligation. Volume pricing available for orders above 1000 pieces.

En8 (also known as C45 or AISI 1045) is a medium carbon steel with 0.40–0.50% carbon content. It offers a balanced combination of tensile strength (700–850 MPa in normalised condition, up to 1000 MPa when heat-treated), toughness, and excellent machinability. For threaded studs, En8 is preferred because it threads cleanly — whether cut or rolled — achieves consistent dimensional accuracy, and after zinc plating provides good corrosion protection for industrial environments. It is the most widely specified material for Grade 8.8 equivalent fasteners and is available in a wide range of bar diameters from Indian mills at competitive cost.

Yes — 100% custom manufacturing to your drawing or sample is our core service. We accept 2D drawings (PDF, DXF, DWG), 3D models (STEP, IGES), or physical samples for reverse engineering. Non-standard engagement lengths, special thread pitches, shoulder diameters, cross-holes, flats, and custom surface finishes are all routinely produced. Our engineering team provides DFM (Design for Manufacturability) feedback if any features can be optimised for cost or performance. First article samples with full dimensional inspection reports are provided for your approval before batch production begins.

Thread rolling is a cold-forming process where thread profiles are formed by displacing material rather than cutting it. This produces a compressive stress layer at the thread root, which significantly improves fatigue strength (typically 20–30% higher than cut threads) and eliminates the stress concentration notch created by machining. Rolled threads also have superior surface finish (Ra 0.8 vs Ra 1.6 for cut threads), tighter dimensional consistency across high volumes, and no chip contamination risk. For high-tensile fasteners in vibration-prone applications such as engine studs, pressure vessel bolting, and heavy machinery, thread rolling is strongly recommended. We offer both rolled and cut threads and can advise which is appropriate for your load case.

Yes, OM Engineering Works regularly exports precision fasteners including DIN 939 threaded studs to the USA, UK, Germany, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Australia, and other markets. We have experience with export documentation requirements including FORM-A (for GSP beneficiary countries), commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and EN 10204 3.1 material certificates. Components are packed to international export standards with thread protection caps, anti-rust VCI packaging, and wooden crate or carton export packing as appropriate. Lead times for export orders range from 10–21 working days depending on quantity.

Our minimum order quantity starts from 50 pieces for standard DIN 939 threaded studs, making us suitable for R&D prototyping, maintenance stock, and small-batch production as well as high-volume manufacturing. Prototype orders of 10–25 pieces are accepted for engineering validation samples — please mention "prototype" in your quote request. Volume pricing applies at 500, 1000, 5000, and 10,000 piece tiers.

Hydrogen embrittlement is a phenomenon where atomic hydrogen — introduced during acid pickling and electroplating — diffuses into the steel lattice and reduces ductility, leading to delayed fracture under tensile loads. It is a critical concern for high-tensile fasteners (Grade 10.9 and above). We prevent hydrogen embrittlement through: (1) controlling acid pickling time and temperature during pre-plating treatment; (2) post-plating hydrogen embrittlement relief baking at 190–220°C for 4–8 hours within 4 hours of plating (per ISO 4042 / ASTM F1941); and (3) for the highest-grade applications, specifying mechanical zinc plating (Sherardizing or mechanical deposition) which eliminates the acid pickling stage entirely. All high-tensile plated studs are supplied with a baking certificate on request.

We provide: EN 10204 3.1 Material Test Certificate (chemical composition and mechanical properties from the mill), First Article Inspection (FAI) Report with full dimensional measurements including thread, shank and length checks, Certificate of Conformance (CoC) confirming the order meets the specified DIN 939 / drawing requirements, Plating Certificate confirming zinc thickness and passivation specification, Hydrogen Embrittlement Relief Bake Certificate (for Grade 10.9 / 12.9 equivalents), and Tensile / Proof Load Test Report on request for structural or critical fastener applications. All documents are provided in digital PDF format on the day of shipment.
