How are Sems screws made?
SEMS are created by combing a bolt with a permanently affixed washer. This washer stays in place due to the fact that it is installed on the blank bolt before the thread rolling is conducted. Because the treads are larger than the initial diameter, the washer stays in place without falling loose from the bolt.
