Ball Stud (Tinnerman Type) Manufacturer
Ball Stud (Tinnerman Type) Manufacturer
(OP)
We have ball studs listed on many of our drawings with the manufacturer listed as Eaton. These are the Tinnerman type of fasteners with Tinnerman Palnut supplying the various "nuts" which are sockets for the balls to snap in and out of. Tinnerman Palnut does not manufacturer the studs themselves, however, just the nuts.
Searching on Eaton indicates the the manufacturing of the ball studs has been "Divested". Example part numbers include P101-499 and P116-447-6-495. If anybody has any idea who manufacturers these things, your help would be appreciated. Alternatively, something in the way of a standard would also be useful.
Thx,

Guden certainly does make comparable ball studs.
The difficulty is that Tinnerman gives the ball stud part numbers (P1XX), but we don't know what those part number are connotating beyond the info given by Tinnerman.
RE: Ball Stud (Tinnerman Type) Manufacturer
I don't understand what you mean exactly. Are you trying to specify a Part or find an alternate P/N? Or do you just want to know how the part is specified as called out by the tinnermen p/n?

I'd also like to know who is actually manufacturing the things, and according to what specification, so we could update our drawings; but that is not the primary need. I won't go into our purchasing questions, but suffice it to say our sourcing is undetermined.
RE: Ball Stud (Tinnerman Type) Manufacturer
There is a Stud Data Sheet, but I just saw in our library that It has been cancelled for new design. Have a look. As far a who is making them... we are right now specifying guden.

RE: Ball Stud (Tinnerman Type) Manufacturer
Thanks for your assistance. I misunderstood your reference to Guden, I thought you were suggesting an alternate part, not a possible manufacturer for the Tinnnerman style.
The link does not seem to work for me, I get a page unavailable. It may be an issue with my firewall here at work, that happens occasionally. Anybody else having luck? Otherwise, I'll try later or from home tonight.
Thanks again.
