Fasteners from the expert

We offer a unique and wide range of fastening parts

From a two-man business to an international trading company - Würth is strongly grown since it was founded in 1945. The enormous growth of the company was accompanied by the constant expansion of the industrial range. Today we offer you an enormous variety of fasteners and other C-parts, according to your individual needs and to international standards.

Advantages of releasable connections

If you want to join modules or components together, you can glue, rivet, weld or solder them. However, these methods have the disadvantage that you can't easily release the connected parts. This is different with a screw connection: You only need one thread and one screw or one hole with screw and nut to join two parts together - and unscrew them if necessary. The concept is as simple as the design and the costs are very low.

Specialists on screws? If not us, who?

In our Technology Platform, you will find technical background, details and expert documents on the topic of connection technology and screw connections. How do screws behave when connected? Under extreme circumstances? How to make nuts and bolts?

Fasteners with inch thread

In addition to fasteners with metric thread, as they are mainly used in Europe, we also offer screws and fastening parts with inch threads.

With our wide range of threaded inserts, we can also provide optimal service to American companies manufacturing their products in European locations or provide fasteners for exported products.

The two most common thread types are the American standard coarse-pitch thread UNC and the standard fine-pitch thread UNF. Both types are listed in our online shop.

The difference between the metric thread and the American thread is that in the metric range, one specifies the pitch of the thread (e.g. M8 x 1.25 mm) and with American threads, one specifies the number of threads on one inch. 1 inch equals 25.4 mm.

Threads not only differ in metric and inch; items with inch thread are found not only in the United States but also in England and here are also differences.

The English thread is named after its inventor Sir Joseph Whitworth and is also measured in inches. In contrast to the American standard thread, the English inch thread differs as follows:

  • UNC = standard American coarse thread, 60º flank angle (angle from thread flank to thread flank)
  • BSW = British Standard Withworth thread, 55º flank angle

Fasteners: small parts, big effort?

Not with us! C-Parts. With Certainty.

In industrial production, fasteners, joints and other means of production generate high procurement costs and deployment costs despite their low value. Our system solutions for the supply of production and operating materials as well as auxiliary materials minimize and streamline your manual process costs while reducing your stock.

We accompany you throughout the entire production process and take important steps for you: from the implementation of the supply system, through the assumption of disposition, procurement and quality control to the warehousing and distribution of goods directly to your production lines. Worldwide.
