Nuts / Bolts & Its Complete Types
Fasteners come in several different forms. Making
it very simple for you as we have collected and put together the data a guide
for you to figure out what each fastener is called.
The Bolts
are the Fasteners that need a nut or a pre-tapped hole to be installed. The
screws use the threads to provide the holding power.
Below are
some of the fasteners from the Fastener Bolts Nuts Manufacturer.
Carriage bolts.
These are
also known as the ‘Coach” bolt, it has a domed or countersunk head. The square
in this under the head is to grip into the part that is being fastened
preventing the bolt from turning whilst the nut is tightened.
Hex Head Bolts.
The Hex Head Bolts, Hex Caps screws, Hex serrated
flange bolts, and the Trim head hex bolts fall in this category. All of them
share a hexagonal head and are driven with the help of the wrench. And are
referred to as both the bolts and the screws.
Machine screws
The machine screw is a bolt or a screw the flat
top. These are available a wide variety of drive types and heads, they are used
in a variety of different applications. Are often driven into tapped holes.
These are used with nuts and washers, are also known as the “stove bolts” or
“stovers”.
Shoulder bolts.
These Shoulder bolts are also referred to as the
Strippers bolts or the Shoulder screws, these are machine screws with shoulders
on the neck between the thread of the screw and the head part.
Once it is
installed, the non-threaded part extends out of the surface of the application,
letting the bolts to act the shafts for the moving parts. These can be
installed by hand or by the Allen driver.
Socket Cap Screws.
The Socket cap screws are available in the button
socket, flat socket, button flange socket head, the flat socket. Is driven with
the help of a wrench or a Hex Allen key. The term socket head cap refers to a
typically threaded fastener, of which the head diameter is normally 1.5 times
the screw shank diameter.
Square Head Bolts.
The Square Head Bolts are quite similar to the
Hex Cap Screws, but with the 4-sided head. This 4-sided head style allows the
wrench to have a better grip more easily onto the head of the bolt. The head of
the bolt also allows a larger gripping area as compared to the 6-sided
hexagonal head.
