    Low-Strength Steel Hold-Down Bolts

    About half the strength of medium-strength bolts, these bolts are for light duty work-holding. They’re often used to hold batteries in place and have a hook on one end that grabs as the other end is tightened with a nut. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in wet environments.

    Battery Holders with On/Off Switch
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Battery Holders. Enclosed Battery Holders, Battery Holders with On/Off Switch.
    Battery holders with an on/off switch can be turned on and off without opening the enclosure, reducing the risk of damaging internal components. You can also power them on and off without desoldering the wire lead to your application when making configuration changes. Because they’re easy to turn off, these holders help preserve battery life longer than holders without an on/off switch.
