Precision Straightness Control in Fasteners: How We Meet Your Custom Requirements & Save Costs



1. Defining Straightness: Why It Matters

Straightness is a critical geometric tolerance (per ISO 1101、ISO2768、GB1804-2000、UNI-EN-22768-mK、GB1184etc) that measures the deviation of a fastener’s axis from a perfect straight line.

You can check our website download sections to get this standard files.


Even minor deviations can cause:



  • l Assembly failures (e.g., misalignment in automotive chassis).


  • l Reduced fatigue life (e.g., in aerospace fasteners).

  • l Increased scrap/warranty costs.



2. Our Capabilities: Precision Tailored to Your Needs


At Kinsom Fasteners, we combine advanced processes and 20+ years of expertise to achieve:

Straightness Standard

Typical Tolerance (per 100mm)

Applicable Fasteners


Commercial Grade

≤0.3mm

General-purpose bolts


Automotive Grade

≤0.1mm

Engine/transmission bolts


Aerospace Grade

≤0.05mm

Critical structural pins


Custom Ultra-Precision

As low as ≤0.02mm

Medical/optical devices




Key Technologies:


  • Multi-stage cold forging: Minimizes internal stresses that cause warping.

  • In-line laser measurement: 100% real-time straightness inspection (data traceable to NIST).

  • Post-forming correction: Proprietary straightening presses for critical applications.




3. Cost-Saving Strategies Without Compromising Quality

We optimize straightness control while reducing your total cost through:

  • Material selection: Alloy grades matched to your load requirements (avoiding over-engineering).

  • Process design: Integrated straightening steps in production flow (eliminating secondary operations).

  • Data transparency: Provide SPC reports to help you approve tighter tolerances only where needed.




Case :

A European auto OEM reduced assembly line stoppages by 40% after switching to our ≤0.08mm straightness control for wheel hub bolts, achieving 15% cost savings versus traditional machining.



4. Partner With a Straightness Expert

Whether you need standard or fully custom specs, our engineers will:

  • Analyze your application’s functional requirements (not just "copy the drawing").

  • Propose the most cost-effective tolerance level.

  • Deliver full documentation (PPAP, CPK studies, material certs).
