Countersink

« Back to Glossary Index

Countersinking is a service performed in the manufacturing industry that involves creating a conical-shaped hole in a material, typically metal, to allow for a screw or bolt to sit flush with the surface. This process is commonly used in the aerospace, automotive, and construction industries, where precision and accuracy are crucial. Countersinking can be done manually using a countersink tool or automatically using a CNC machine. The depth and angle of the countersink can be adjusted to meet specific requirements, such as the size and type of screw or bolt being used.

Countersinking is an important process in manufacturing as it ensures that screws and bolts are securely fastened to the material without protruding, which can cause damage or injury. It also provides a smooth and aesthetically pleasing finish to the surface. Countersinking can be used on a variety of materials, including aluminum, steel, and plastic.
