What are the fastening methods?
The most common mechanical fastening methods include:
- Integral fasteners.
- Threaded fasteners.
- Non-threaded fasteners.
- Stapling.
How many types of fastening are there?
There are three main types of threaded fastener; Bolts, Screws and Studs. Bolts have a head on one end (this is usually a hex head) and are threaded on the other. They are generally used in conjunction with a nut (and sometimes a washer) to hold them in place.
What are the three basic types of fasteners?

- #1) Screws. The most common type of threaded fastener is a screw.
- #2) Nuts. Another common type of threaded fastener is a nut.
- #3) Bolts. The third primary type of threaded fastener is a bolt.

What are the needs for fastening and joining?
Today’s design needs include fastening and joining methods that can handle vibration, thinner boards, smaller products, and higher temperatures. These needs spur the fastening and joining industry to innovate, so here’s a look at some of the latest fastening and joining products.
When do you use threaded fasteners in Assembly?
They are used where subsequent disassembly and reassembly may be required. Threaded fasteners include machine screws, nuts, and bolts. Rivets: Rivets are one piece, permanent mechanical fasteners inserted through matching holes in component parts.
What’s the best way to fasten a bolt?
The pin can replace other labor-intensive fastening combinations such as a clevis pin and cotter pin, a pin and retaining ring or a nut and bolt. The simple, one-piece design means faster assembly speeds. It is inserted from just one side. There is no need to access the other side to secure another fastener such as a cotter pin, a nut or a clip.
