Cold forming for dimensionally accurate screws with an efficiency advantage

Cold forming is one of the most economical processes in screw manufacturing – ideal for high volumes with high dimensional accuracy. Precise tool technology creates dimensionally stable fasteners with excellent surface quality and optimal material utilization. Whether standard screw, special screw or custom-made product – we implement your requirements efficiently, reproducibly and in consistently high quality.

Your Benefits at a Glance

Screw types for cold forming at a glance

Cold forming is particularly suitable for screws that are manufactured in large quantities and must be dimensionally stable, resilient and dimensionally accurate. At OEB, we use the process for standard parts, special screws, micro screws, thin-shank screws, metric screws and self-tapping, sheet metal processing and thread-forming screws. Cold forming also offers clear advantages for thin-walled or more complex screw types such as thin sheet metal screws or thread-cutting variants – for economical, reliable and high-quality connection solutions.

Connecting and fastening technology - Standard screws

Standard parts

Dimensionally accurate, resilient, reliable: Our standard parts according to DIN and ISO meet the highest standards – ideal for all types of industrial applications.

Custom-made special screws for special applications

Special screws

Precise, functional, individual: Special screws made from cold forming are compelling for high demands – even with complex geometries.

Micro screws

Micro screws

Small, precise, and exact: Micro screws for electronics and precision mechanics – manufactured with the highest precision and process reliability.

Thin shank screws

Gentle on materials, stable, efficient: Thin-shaft screws reliably connect lightweight components – ideal for plastics and thin-walled metals.

Metric screws

Metric screws

Versatile, standardized, proven: Metric screws from cold forming are available in all common dimensions and strengths.

Self-tapping screws - thread-forming / thread-cutting

Self-tapping screws

Cost-saving, time-efficient, easy to install: Self-tapping screws with integrated thread form – ideal for thin sheet metal and plastic.

Sheet metal screws

Sheet metal screws

Direct, positive-locking, robust: Sheet metal screws with high holding power – specially designed for use in thin sheets.
