Shear bolt tapered tail

Das Kaltstauchverfahren ist eines der neuen Verfahren für die Druckbearbeitung mit weniger oder gar keiner Zerspanung
Metall. Es handelt sich um eine Verarbeitungsmethode, die die plastische Verformung von Metall unter der Einwirkung von
äußere Kräfte, und mit Hilfe von Formen wird das Metallvolumen umverteilt und in die Form gebracht
die gewünschten Teile oder Rohlinge. Das Kaltstauchverfahren ist am besten geeignet für die Herstellung von Standard
Verbindungselemente wie Bolzen, Schrauben, Muttern, Nieten, Stifte usw.

Tapered tail shear bolts are specialized fasteners designed to fail at a predetermined torque or shear load, protecting machinery from overload damage. Here’s a detailed description:

Wesentliche Merkmale:

1. Tapered Tail Design

   • The bolt has a conical (tapered) section near the head or along the shank, which creates a stress concentration point.

   • This taper ensures controlled shearing under excessive force, preventing damage to connected components.

   • Shear bolt tapered tail

2. Shear Functionality

   • Engineered to break at a specific shear load, acting as a mechanical fuse.

   • Commonly used in power transmission systems (e.g., augers, conveyors, PTO shafts) to protect against jams or overloads.

3. Materials & Strength

   • Typically made from medium-carbon steel or alloy steel, heat-treated for consistent shear strength.

   • Some versions are zinc-plated or coated for corrosion resistance.

4. Kopf-Typen

   • May feature hex heads, flange heads, or other drive styles for easy installation.

   • Often marked with grade identifiers (e.g., “Grade 2” or shear load ratings).

5. Anwendungen

   • Agricultural machinery (combine harvesters, tillers).

   • Industrial equipment (conveyors, crushers).

   • Automotive and aerospace systems requiring overload protection.

   • Shear bolt tapered tail

Vorteile:

• Prevents costly equipment damage by shearing before mechanical failure occurs.

• Easy replacement post-failure, minimizing downtime.

• Precision-engineered shear points ensure reliability.

Common Standards:

• DIN, ISO, or OEM-specific specifications for dimensions and shear strength.
