The longer shank is threaded and at least the shorter shank or head stud is tin-plated. The stud may be swaged into a mounting hole in the heat sink and the heat sink and semiconductor case pre-assembled. The pre-assembled unit may then be mounted and soldered to the circuit board along with other circuit components.Other References
