Cold heading process is one of the new processes for pressure machining of less or no cutting
metal. It is a processing method that utilizes the plastic deformation of metal under the action of
external forces, and with the aid of molds, redistributes and transfers the volume of metal to form
the required parts or blanks. The cold heading process is most suitable for producing standard
fasteners such as bolts, screws, nuts, rivets, and pins.etc
A Safety wire bolt Full thread is a specialized fastener designed to secure components in critical applications where vibration, movement, or other forces could cause loosening. The bolt features a fully threaded shank and a drilled head or side hole to allow for the installation of safety wire (also known as lock wire or locking wire).
Key Features:
-
Full Thread Design – The entire shank is threaded, providing maximum grip and adjustability in applications where a partially threaded bolt may not be suitable.
-
Drilled Head or Hole – The head or the side of the bolt has one or more holes to pass safety wire through, enabling it to be secured to another bolt or a fixed point.
-
Material – Typically made from high-strength materials such as:
-
Stainless Steel (e.g., A2/A4 for corrosion resistance)
-
Alloy Steel (e.g., Grade 8, with high tensile strength)
-
Titanium (for aerospace applications, lightweight and corrosion-resistant)

-
-
Thread Type – Common thread standards include UNC (Coarse), UNF (Fine), or Metric depending on the application.
-
Finish – May include coatings like zinc plating, cadmium (for aerospace), or anodizing for corrosion resistance.
Applications:
-
Aerospace (engine components, landing gear)
-
Motorsports (high-vibration environments)
-
Military & Defense (firearms, vehicle assemblies)
-
Industrial Machinery (pumps, compressors, rotating equipment)
Safety Wiring Method:
-
The wire is threaded through the bolt’s hole and twisted before being secured to another bolt or a fixed anchor point.
-
This prevents the bolt from rotating loose due to vibration or torque.
