- Installer bits are specialized drill bits for drilling wood, plaster, and some masonry. They are generally used for installing wiring systems.

Before we give in to the temptation of a 90% discount, let’s do a quick review of what we trade off by using generic nuts. The first and most obvious barrier is that a particular extrusion beam’s profile might not allow a generic nut to be used. Second, a generic nut will not engage slot interior surfaces to the same degree as a nut tailored to the extrusion profile. This usually means we can’t torque the bolt down as tightly before something slips. Third, higher end specialty nuts provide friction against the extrusion, either by its shape, size, or an additional thin metal spring that holds the nut in place. Nuts that stay at position instead of sliding around in the slot eases assembly, translating into less time wasted and lower frustration for the assembler. Such labor savings can outweigh a specialty fastener’s cost.

Yet, if we look at the advertising currently produced, it seems that brands are paying lip service to culture and not appreciating it. To use a metaphor, culture is a rich palette containing a variety of hues and shades, yet brands seem only to be painting in green, focusing on patriotism, religion or other tried and tested formulas.

An apt example of a truly desi idea is the Nike India cricket commercial. Instead of showing kids playing cricket in the galees (streets) or on a cricket field, the brand team decided to use a local ‘bane’ – the traffic jam – as the setting.

- Glass and tile bits are, as the name suggests, specially designed for use with glass and tiles. They tend to be made of carbide to prevent chipping and cracking.

Channels respond to this by saying that if production houses want a share of the royalties, they should sell the content to local channels at less than market price and then sell it to the foreign channels themselves.

The word ‘Lollywood’ was first coined in the summer of 1989, in the now-defunct magazine Glamour, published from Karachi by gossip columnist Saleem Nasir. The film industry in Lahore started in 1929 with the opening of the United Players’ Studios on Ravi Road. Eastern Films Magazine, a tabloid edited by Saeed Haroon, became the most popular magazine for film buffs in Pakistan. The magazine had a questions-and-answers section called ‘Yours Impishly’ which the sub-editor, Asif Noorani, took inspiration for from I.S. Johar’s page in India’s Filmfare magazine. Another such magazine, Nigar, a brainchild of Ilyas Rashidi, also known as the pioneer of film journalism, was launched as a weekly film magazine in 1948. In 1957, the Nigar Awards were instituted as an extension of Nigar.

If high-strength threads are needed, threaded inserts can be pressed or shrunk into magnesium, but screwed-in inserts are preferred. One example is the MaggCert from Acument. The exterior surface of this tubular insert features Mag-Form threads, while the interior surface has standard machine screw threads in its interior surface. Available in sizes M4, M5, M6, M8 and M10, the insert is driven into a drilled or formed hole using a screwdriver with a Torx Plus bit.

This shift in consumer shopping preferences, from a ‘product-price focus’ to an ‘assortment-experience’ focus, did not go unnoticed by local grocery retailers, such as Naheed and Imtiaz supermarkets, which underwent a 360-degree remodelling and transformation after 2008, by adopting a multi-level department store format.

But, due to limitations beyond the fastener itself, there are many situations where a stud simply cannot be used to replace a bolt. For instance, if you know you’ll be removing the cylinder head while the engine is in the car (particularly in a V8 application), the use of studs means that many components under the hood will have to be removed before that head will come off. Think about the brake master cylinder, or the A/C system on the firewall.
