Selectable socket sizes
Upper limit of the sockets pilot hole diameter
- On meviy, when you would select socket mounting, please change the hole information indication for mounting holes.
- The installation method uses arc welding. Please note that for the Sheet Metal Parts Service, socket installation only available for manual quotation.
- The selectable socket sizes depend on the diameter of the mounting hole.
- For each socket size, a maximum allowable hole diameter is defined.
- Please refer to the table below for details.
Ferrous Metals
| Socket size | Upper limit of the pilot hole diameter (d) | Example |
|---|---|---|
| 6A(Rc1/8) | d ≤ 19.0 | ![]() |
| 8A(Rc1/4) | d ≤ 22.0 | |
| 10A(Rc3/8) | d ≤ 28.0 | |
| 15A(Rc1/2) | d ≤ 32.0 | |
| 20A(Rc3/4) | d ≤ 38.0 | |
| 25A(Rc1) | d ≤ 46.0 | |
| 32A(Rc1 1/4) | d ≤ 58.0 | |
| 40A(Rc1 1/2) | d ≤ 63.0 | |
| 50A(Rc2) | d ≤ 76.0 |
Stainless Steel
| Socket size | Upper limit of the pilot hole diameter (d) | Example |

| 50A(Rc2) | d ≤ 68.0 |
Maximum Number of Sockets Eligible for Automatic Quotation
- As a condition for automatic quotation, there is a limit on the number of sockets that can be installed per model.
Please refer to the table below for details. - If the number of sockets to be installed exceeds this limit, quotations can be provided through meviy Support.
| Maximum number of sockets eligible for automatic quotation per model |
|---|
| 4 |
Socket Size Selection
- Please refer to the table below for the materials, plate thicknesses, and sizes that support socket installation.
- Socket installation cannot be selected for Aluminium、Perforated Metal、Shim plate、 Clear Resin and Composite material.
| Material | Plate Thickness | Socket Size | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
