KPMI Cylinder Studs are made from 180,000 PSI yield strength, fine-grain, heat-treated, aircraft-grade alloy steel. When you want a stud that meets proof-stress and maximizes clamping force, look no further. KPMI "rolls" the threads, heat treats and then centerless grinds the entire body of the stud. Rolling the threads creates the toughest and strongest thread possible and centerless grinding removes notch sensitivity. The final process for all KPMI Studs is to encase the entire stud with premium corrosion-resistant treatment of black oxide. Congratulations on your choice to purchase a stud that meets and exceeds your stock-replacement of high-performance needs!.
KPMI nuts are single point machined from high tensile strength aircraft-alloy steel. During the machining process, close tolerances and smooth surface finishes are maintained - two critical factors for achieving correct fit and torque. After machining, the nuts are heat treated to a specific depth. This creates hard, wear-resistant working surfaces, while retaining a ductile core to prevent cracking under load. The premium black oxide treatment provides excellent corrosion resistance and appearance.
