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
Gold Plated Pan Head Shear Bolts are specialized fasteners designed for applications requiring both security and corrosion resistance. Here’s a detailed description:
Features:
-
Head Style:
-
Pan Head – A slightly rounded head with a flat bearing surface, providing a neat finish and moderate load distribution.
- Shear bolt with pan head gold plated
-
-
Shear Feature:
-
Designed to shear off at a predetermined torque, preventing over-tightening and unauthorized removal (tamper-resistant).
-
Once installed, the head breaks away, leaving only the shank, making disassembly difficult without special tools.
-
-
Gold Plating:
-
A thin layer of gold plating provides:
-
Corrosion resistance (ideal for harsh environments).
-
Aesthetic appeal (used in decorative or high-visibility applications).
-
Conductivity (sometimes used in electronics).
- Shear bolt with pan head gold plated
-
-
-
Drive Type:
-
Typically features a hex socket (Allen) or Torx drive for installation before shearing.
-
-
Material:
-
Usually made from hardened steel or stainless steel for strength.
-
Gold plating is applied over a nickel undercoat for better adhesion.
-
-
Thread Type:
-
Available in machine threads (metric or imperial) depending on application.
- Shear bolt with pan head gold plated
-
Common Applications:
-
Security fastening (e.g., public fixtures, military/aviation equipment).
-
Electronics (where conductivity and corrosion resistance are needed).
-
Decorative hardware (luxury items, automotive trim).
-
High-value equipment (to deter tampering).
