Custom Chicago Screws

El proceso de estampado en frío es uno de los nuevos procesos de mecanizado a presión de menor o ningún corte
metal. Es un método de transformación que utiliza la deformación plástica del metal bajo la acción de
fuerzas externas y, con ayuda de moldes, redistribuye y transfiere el volumen de metal para formar
las piezas o formatos necesarios. El proceso de estampación en frío es el más adecuado para producir piezas estándar.
elementos de fijación como pernos, tornillos, tuercas, remaches, pasadores, etc.

Custom Chicago screws (also known as sex bolts, barrel nuts, or binding posts) are specialized fasteners designed for both functional and decorative applications. They consist of two interlocking parts—a threaded barrel (male) y un mating screw (female)—that screw together to securely fasten materials without requiring a separate nut. These screws are widely used in industries such as leatherworking, jewelry, bookbinding, and industrial manufacturing, where both durability and aesthetics matter.
