Stainless steels are used for their corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, scaling resistance, and low-temperature toughness. These properties account for their extremely wide use in practically every industry. Austenitic Stainless Steels are alloys of iron and carbon that contain between 16% and 30% Chromium, a maximum of 0.15% carbon, along with Nickel (or Manganese), and other alloying elements. The chromium, which helps develop a passive surface oxide film, provides corrosion resistance in stainless steels. Austenitic Stainless Steels are designated by a 3 digit SAE Stainless Steel Grade beginning with the number 3 (e.g. 304, 316). Another common naming convention for Austenitic Stainless Steels are 18/8, 18/10, 18/0, etc. where the 18 refers to the % of Chromium and 8 to the % of Nickel contained in the material.
A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter (in millimeters), followed by the thread pitch (millimeters per thread), which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Coarse threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings.

This is great quality product and has been essential for my hobbyist needs.In the past, I've upgraded upwards of 8-10 joysticks with these studs. I use them to create universal joystick "hanging mounts" on sticks that were originally "JLF or Hori clone-only" or never had such support, period. These studs have never broken on me and as long as the holes for them were properly drilled they have never failed to support the weight of the joysticks and stick mounts screwed onto them.With the new art that I create for these joysticks, I also need a screw that's flat-headed and as flush as possible with the faceplate and these studs have worked out extremely well for my purposes.I have found pricing for these studs very reasonable on the web and would urge other hobbyists -- in particular modelers and do-it-yourself joystick upgrade afficionados -- to seek this style of part out.
