Thread Rolling
Section
Dedicated cold-form thread rolling machines producing chipless, high-strength threads up to M20 — with superior fatigue life, surface finish, and consistency over cut threads, for automotive fasteners, shafts, and precision components since 1973.
Chipless Threading with Superior Strength
Thread rolling is a cold-forming process that displaces material rather than cutting it — producing threads with continuous, unbroken grain flow, work-hardened surfaces, and significantly higher fatigue strength than cut or ground threads. Pivot Fabrique's Thread Rolling Section operates a dedicated fleet of flat die and cylindrical die rolling machines covering M3 to M20, purpose-built for high-volume automotive and industrial production under ISO/TS 16949:2009 quality control.
Flat Die Rolling
High-speed reciprocating flat die machines — ideal for short fasteners, studs, and pins with consistent production rates.
Cylindrical Die Rolling
Two-roll cylindrical die machines for longer shafts and threaded components — precision pitch control over extended lengths.
M3 to M20 Range
Complete metric coverage from fine fasteners to heavy-duty bolts — with imperial and special-profile threads available on request.
Superior Thread Quality
Up to 30% higher fatigue strength versus cut threads — burnished surface finish, no chips, no machining marks.
Complete Thread Rolling Machine Capacity
12 dedicated cold-form thread rolling machines across flat die and cylindrical die platforms — covering metric threads from M3 fine fasteners to M20 heavy-duty bolts, with capability for imperial and special-profile threads on request.

| Flat Die Thread Roller — Medium | M6 to M12 Thread Range | 3 |
| Flat Die Thread Roller — Large | M10 to M16 Thread Range | 2 |
| Cylindrical Die Roller — Standard | M6 to M16 / Long Shafts | 3 |
| Cylindrical Die Roller — Heavy Duty | Up to M20 Thread Diameter | 1 |
From Blank to Rolled Thread
Every component processed in our thread rolling section follows a structured, quality-verified workflow — ensuring correct pitch, thread profile integrity, and surface finish from first-off through batch production.
The Advantage of Cold-Form Threads
With 8 flat die rolling machines and 4 cylindrical die rolling machines covering M3 to M20 — our thread rolling section produces chipless, work-hardened threads with up to 30% higher fatigue strength than cut threads, entirely in-house at production scale.
Higher Fatigue Strength
Continuous grain flow and work-hardened root surface deliver up to 30% greater fatigue life than cut or ground threads.
Burnished Surface Finish
Cold-forming produces a smooth, polished thread surface — typically Ra 0.4–0.8μm — eliminating machining marks and stress risers.
Chipless & Material Efficient
Material is displaced, not cut — zero swarf, lower raw material consumption, and a cleaner shop floor.
High Production Speed
Thread rolling cycle times are a fraction of single-point cutting — purpose-built for automotive volume schedules.
Consistent Class 6g Threads
Hardened dies produce thousands of identical threads — repeatable pitch, profile, and tolerance batch after batch.
Integrated with Full Process Chain
Thread rolling output feeds directly into heat treatment, plating, and quality — complete single-vendor continuity.
