Question

what is difference between screw and stud

Answer 1

Screw:
An externally threaded fastner capable of being inserted into the holes inside assembled parts (now comes the difference) of mating with a pre formed internal thread or forming it's own thread is called a screw. It has an ability of being tightened and released by torquing the head.


Stud:
A metal rod or shaft with threads on both sides is called a stud. Usually the rod is long, but depending upon the requirement the size can be changed.
