Challenges
Fastening two or more parts together sometimes requires special tools, electricity or compressed air, sometimes damages the parts themselves, and sometimes cannot be undone.
Fastening two or more parts together should be quick, easy, produce a strong joint, and be a fully reversible process.
Approaches
Parts
- M3xXX, M3xYY, M3xZZ bolts
- M8x50, M8x90, M8x130 bolts
- M25xXX, M25xYY, M25xZZ bolts
Life cycle
Degenerative transformation
Long bolts can be cut to form shorter bolts.
Use of last resort
Stripped, bent, or abraded bolts degrade to abrasive pellets for ball mills.
