The rolled diameter, which is smaller than the nominal diameter, corresponds to the diameter of the flank of the thread, a saving in both metal and weight.

What is zinc flake plating? What are its advantages?

It consists of a zinc coating, not by electrolysis. The part is immersed in a zinc and aluminium resin prior to baking. With this process, hydrogen embrittlement is avoided and therefore the part is more resistant to salt corrosion and contributes to a lower friction coefficient.
