Chem-Set No Drill Fastener M1-RB38

Description

The Chem-Set M1-RB38 round baseplate fastener pairs a male-threaded stud with a round 38mm, 1.2mm-thick baseplate, giving fabricators a no-drill anchor point for adhesive-bonded assembly work. Because the stud mounts on a flat round plate rather than a bar or bracket, it suits round cutouts and tight radius mounting spots where a rectangular base will not sit flush.

Where a round baseplate fastener earns its place

Drilling and tapping a hole into stone, composite panel, or finished metal risks cracking the substrate or leaving a visible repair mark. This fastener sidesteps that risk entirely: the baseplate bonds to the surface with a compatible adhesive, and the protruding stud becomes the mounting point for brackets, hardware, or fixtures. Fabricators get a clean, structural anchor without touching the substrate with a drill bit, and the round profile keeps the bond footprint compact on curved or narrow mounting areas.

Specifications for the round baseplate fastener

• Baseplate: Round, 38mm diameter, 1.2mm thickness
• Stud type: Male threaded bolt stud
• Thread sizes: 10-24, 10-32, 1/4-20, 3/8-16
• Common stud lengths: 0.250 in to 3.000 in, depending on thread size
• Base materials and plating: Multiple options for custom fit

Because thread size and stud length are configurable, shops can match this part to the hardware already spec’d for an assembly rather than redesigning around a fixed stud. That flexibility is useful on repair work where the original fastener is no longer available, and on new builds where the design calls for a specific bolt length to clear a bracket or panel stack. Ordering by thread and length also cuts down on inventory, since one baseplate style covers a range of mounting jobs.

Chem-Set fasteners are engineered to work with Chemical Concepts’ adhesive lines for a complete no-drill mounting system. For application techniques and bond strength demonstrations on stud-and-baseplate hardware like this one, see the Chemical Concepts YouTube channel.
