The thread stripping problem of titanium screws is closely related to its material properties and usage conditions. The following is a detailed analysis:
Friction coefficient of titanium screws:
Titanium has a low friction coefficient, which means that under certain conditions, titanium screws may experience thread stripping when tightening. Especially in high-torque or high-load applications, the risk of thread stripping increases if the thread contact area is insufficient or the installation is improper.
Anti-slip design:
In order to reduce thread stripping, special attention should be paid to the design and installation methods of titanium screws. First, using appropriate nuts and washers can increase the contact area of the threads and reduce the possibility of thread stripping. Secondly, avoiding overtightening and installing according to the manufacturer’s recommended torque value can effectively reduce the risk of thread stripping.
Surface treatment and material improvement:
Some titanium screws are improved by surface treatment (such as hardening or coating) to improve their anti-thread stripping performance. For example, hardening can increase the surface hardness of the thread, thereby reducing the thread stripping phenomenon under high load conditions. In addition, the improvement of some titanium alloy formulas can also improve its anti-thread stripping ability.
