Titanium stud bolts are headless cylindrical shafts with external thread — they have no bolt head and are turned using wrenches or thread. Two hex nuts (one on each end) clamp components symmetrically from both sides, making stud bolts the preferred fastener for flange connections, pressure vessels and any application where a single hex bolt cannot access both sides or where symmetric loading is required.

Three common configurations are referenced in the DIN standard system: DIN 975 (fully threaded stud bar) — thread along the entire length, most common general-purpose type.
DIN 938 (double-ended stud) — threaded at both ends with a smooth unthreaded shank in the middle.
DIN 939 (short-end stud) — one short-threaded end (screwed into a tapped hole) and one long-threaded end (nut-side) for blind or through-hole applications.

IMPORTANT: DIN 975 / DIN 938 / DIN 939 define dimensions and thread patterns for titanium stud bars. They are NOT equivalent to steel bolting specifications such as ASTM A193, which defines material property classes for alloy steel. Mechanical properties of titanium stud bolts depend on titanium grade — specify your material and load requirements.

Product Range & Specifications

DIN 975 / DIN 938 / DIN 939 commonly referenced — specify stud type.

T

Stud Types

DIN 975: fully threaded bar (entire length threaded). Most common.
DIN 938: double-ended stud (both ends threaded, middle smooth).
DIN 939: short-end stud (one end short thread for tapped hole, one end long thread for nut).

TH

Thread Forms

Metric coarse & fine pitch. Trapezoidal thread for linear motion applications on request.

M

Metric Dimensions

Standard Range: M6–M60 (DIN 975). Lengths from 20 mm to 6 m (full bar cut).
Custom Supply: Non-standard diameters, end thread lengths, smooth shank lengths per drawing.
Stock Availability: M8–M30 DIN 975 bar stock in Gr2 & Gr5.

G

Grade Options

Regular: Grade 2 (CP Ti) & Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V alloy).
Coordinated: Grade 1, Grade 7, Grade 9, Grade 23 — subject to order quantity.
Note: Titanium stud bolt strength is defined by titanium grade, not steel property classes (8.8 / 10.9 / 12.9). ASTM A193 is a steel specification system — not equivalent. Confirm your load requirements.

S

Standard References

DIN 975 (fully threaded bar), DIN 938 (double-ended), DIN 939 (short-end). ISO 898 series for steel — titanium properties reviewed per grade.

X

Custom Manufacturing

Non-standard end preparation (e.g. wrench flat milled on end), custom thread lengths, special thread pitches and trapezoidal thread coordinated per drawing.

P

Packaging

Bundled straight in wooden crates, cut to length in box / bag. Export packaging supported.

Typical Application Areas

F

Flange Connections

Stud bolt + two hex nuts is the standard corrosion-resistant flange clamping arrangement.

V

Pressure Vessels & Columns

Heavy-duty clamping where symmetric bolt access is required.

C

Chemical Process Equipment

Corrosion-resistant stud bar supply in standard cut lengths or full 6 m bar.

M

Marine & Offshore

Saltwater-resistant stud bolts for subsea and topside bolted connections.

Quality & Documentation

Material test certificates, thread gauge verification reports, dimensional verification (diameter, thread pitch diameter, straightness, end preparation) and surface documentation available per order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which stud type should I choose?

DIN 975 fully threaded bar: the standard general-purpose choice — order by diameter and cut-to-length. Best when you have full access to both sides.
DIN 938 double-ended stud: threaded ends with smooth shank — used when an unthreaded shear section is needed or when the connection requires a specific smooth length.
DIN 939 short-end stud: one end screwed into a tapped hole, one end accepts a nut — used for blind assemblies where you cannot access the back side with a wrench.

Stud bolt vs hex bolt — which to use?

Use hex bolts (DIN 933 / 931): when you can drive the bolt head from one side and the nut from the other — simpler, one fewer component.
Use stud bolts: when you cannot access both sides (short-end stud), when symmetric loading is required (both ends have the same nut area), when you need a smooth unthreaded section (double-ended), or when you are clamping through thick sections. Stud bolts are the standard choice for flange connections.

Can titanium stud bolts use steel stud bolt specifications like ASTM A193?

No. ASTM A193 is a steel specification system defining material property classes for alloy steel bolting — it has no direct titanium equivalent. DIN 975 / DIN 938 / DIN 939 define dimensions and thread patterns for stud bars of any material. For titanium, the material grade (Grade 2 vs Grade 5) defines properties, not steel property classes. Always specify titanium grade when inquiring.
