Fasteners for high-strength sheet joints

Features and benefits of the EJOT FDS® joint

  • removable and high strength screw joint, without part preparations like punching or drilling
  • no problems regarding hole overlapping of clearance and pilot hole
  • no material waste while forming the draught / no chips during thread forming
  • several metric threads are engaged
  • safety margin due to a large distance between installation and stripping torque
  • high shearing strength and pull-out force
  • assembly in different sheet surfaces is possible
  • high break loose torque and vibration resistance
  • repeat assemblies also possible with standard metric screws
  • earthing assemblies (acc. to DIN VDE 0700 or UL) are possible
  • easy to disassemble and recyclable
  • low overall joint costs

EJOT FDS®

The self piercing and extruding screw for high-strength sheet metal joints

The flow drilling EJOT FDS® screw opens up new possibilities for high strength screw joints, due to the increased thread engagement in the formed draught.


The female metric thread, formed without chips during the insertion process, is true to gauge and therefore a standard metric screw can be used for repairs.


Since component preparations like drilling or punching are not necessary, tolerance problems and the lining up of clearance holes are things of the past. The possibility of one-sided assembly with FDS® makes an installation into hollow profiles or extrusions possible without clamping being necessary.


For sheet metal thicknesses:

  • steel (0,3 - 2,0 mm)
  • aluminium (0,3 - 3,5 mm)
  • magnesium (1,0 - 3,5 mm)
