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.
