    One of our most vibration-resistant steel hex head screws. These won't come loose even in moderate to heavy vibration. To lock them in place, secure a wire (sold separately) through the hole in their head. The head's six flat sides keep wrenches and sockets from slipping and rounding off the drive.
    Length is measured from under the head.
    Medium-Strength Fastener—Your go-to screws for fastening most machinery and equipment. They have tensile strengths from 90,000 to 120,000 psi.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A common choice for areas with occasional exposure to moisture.
    Black-Oxide Steel—Typically chosen for their appearance, these screws have a dark, matte coating to create a finished look. They offer minimal corrosion resistance, so they're best for dry environments.

    Withstand more vibration than other corrosion-resistant hex head screws we offer. These won't come loose even in moderate to heavy vibration. To lock them in place, secure a wire (sold separately) through the hole in their head. The head's six flat sides keep wrenches and sockets from slipping and rounding off the drive.
    Length is measured form under the head.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these screws won't rust. However, they don't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel screws can.

    Prevent the buildup of pressure or vacuum in sealed spaces. The hole in the center of these corrosion-resistant screws allows air, gas, and fluid to escape. They are often used to equalize pressure from high temperatures during coating, curing, and heating. The head's six flat sides keep wrenches and sockets from slipping and rounding off the drive.
    Length is measured from under the head.
