Fastening and Joining

Hex Head Screws

Hex Head Screws

Used with nuts to create a stronger joint than flat and rounded screws

Socket Head Screws

Socket Head Screws

With a deeper drive than flat and rounded head screws, these withstand more torque for a tighter hold

Rounded Head Screws

Rounded Head Screws

Sit just above the surface for a low-profile finish and hold tighter than flat head screws

Flat Head Screws

Flat Head Screws

Fit in countersunk holes for a flush finish

Tighten and loosen by hand without the need for tools

Set Screws

Exert pressure at the tip to hold parts in place, unlike screws that hold material together with threads

Shoulder Screws

Shoulder Screws

Rotate parts around the cylinder under the head to guide and align them during installation

12-Point Screws

12-Point Screws

12 contact points handle more torque than a hex head while a flange eliminates the need for a washer

Carriage Bolts

A smooth head provides a finished look while a square neck keeps the bolt in place when using a nut

Tapping Screws

Fasten a range of materials together without needing to tap the hole first

Wood Screws

Fasten material to wood or pieces of wood to each other

Captive Panel Screws

Captive Panel Screws

Secure panels and enclosures while still having access to them

Fastener Assortments

Fastener Assortments

Stay prepared by keeping fasteners in common sizes and materials on hand

Studs

Press, weld, or screw in place to add a threaded fastening point

Elevator Bolts

Create a flush joint to allow movement in tight spaces such as grain elevators and belting systems

Hanger Bolts

Suspend pipe and other fixtures with wire or cable ties

Threaded Rods

Anchor, connect, or hang components in a wide variety of applications

Thread Adapters

Thread Adapters

Join threads of a different type, size, and gender

Standoffs

Threaded to separate or connect parts as well as position components in assemblies

Rivet Nuts

Add threads to thin panels with access from only one side; also known as blind inserts

Weld Nuts

Weld to metal surfaces to add permanent threads

Single-End Studs

Single-End Studs

Use the unthreaded end as a pivot point, hinge, shaft, or locator pin

Binding Barrels and Screws

Binding Barrels and Screws

Thread together for a low-profile fastener

Spring Plungers

Spring Plungers

Apply accurate, consistent pressure for positioning, indexing, and ejecting parts

Anchors

Secure anything from signs to heavy machinery in concrete, brick, and drywall

Captive Pins

Press into holes in thin materials like panels and circuit boards to permanently join or align them

Magnets

Attract or repel metal objects to hang, secure, or position them

Power Transmission

Lead Screws and Nuts

Lead Screws and Nuts

Components travel along a screw with broad, square threads to clamp and lift heavy loads

Rod Ends

Use with connecting rods to support loads and control steering, tensioning, or pivoting motion

Rod End Nuts

Attach to rods, pipe, and tubing to make pivot and hinge points

Rod End Seals

Keep dirt out and lubrication in to extend the life of rod ends

Rod End Inserts

Rod End Inserts

Attach to rod ends to increase the amount of misalignment they can handle

Connecting Rods

Connecting Rods

Use with rod ends and swivel joints to link components in push/pull assemblies

Ball Screw/Splines

Ball Screw/Splines

Transmit rotary power, move loads along the shaft, or do both at once

Ball Screws and Nuts

Ball Screws and Nuts

Internal ball bearings roll on screws for low friction when moving components at high speeds

Lead and Ball Screw End Supports

Lead and Ball Screw End Supports

Brace and secure the ends of lead screws and ball screws

Roller Screws and Nuts

Roller Screws and Nuts

More contact points to move heavier loads than ball and lead screw assemblies

Fabricating and Machining

Setup Studs

Secure setup clamps and fixtures to your machine table or assemble heavy machines

T-Slot Bolts

Secure clamps and workpieces to machine tables with quicker setup than a T-slot nut and stud

T-Slot Nuts

Fixturing Kits

Everything needed to mount workpieces of different sizes to your machine table

Clamps

Hold workpieces securely in place

Material Handling

Eyebolts

Route rope through the loop or attach hooks and shackles for lifting

Hoist Rings

Pivot to resist stress that would bend or break an eyebolt when lifting at an angle

Eye Nuts

Pair with bolts or threaded rod to lift and hang components

U-Bolts

Anchor heavy pipe, tube, and conduit; stronger than routing clamps and hangers

Building and Machinery Hardware

T-Slotted Framing and Fittings

T-Slotted Framing and Fittings

The most versatile system, attach fittings along the continuous slots to build virtually anything

Locking-Slotted Framing and Fittings

Locking-Slotted Framing and Fittings
