    Meet ASTM standards for use in high-pressure and high-temperature applications. Also known as pressure bolts, these screws are often used to secure pressure tanks, valves, and flanges. With a head that's about 10% wider than standard hex head screws, they handle heavier loads by distributing them over a larger area. The head also has six flat sides to keep wrenches and sockets from slipping and rounding off the drive.
    Length is measured from under the head.
    High-Strength Fastener—Commonly used to fasten components in valves, pumps, motors, and other high-stress applications. These screws have a tensile strength of 125,000 to 160,000 psi.
    ASTM Grade L7—In addition to handling high heat, these screws stay strong in freezing temperatures without cracking. They're frequently used in industrial refrigeration systems, cold-storage facilities, and pipelines for oil and gas.
    Steel—Unfinished steel screws are best for dry environments, since moisture will cause them to rust. They require little surface prep before applying a finish, so you can apply your own paint or coating.
    Grip Length—Screws with a grip length have a precisely measured unthreaded section under the head, called a grip. It's stronger than the threaded section, so you can place it in joints exposed to sideways forces.

    All the hardware you need to join steel or cast iron pipe flanges. These kits come with screws and nuts in the right size and number to match your flange's bolt holes. With screw heads and nuts that are about 10% wider than standard, these kits handle heavier loads by distributing them over a larger area. The head also gives you six, flat contact points, so wrenches and sockets won't slip and round off the drive.
    Screw length is measured from under the head. For a tight seal, you’ll also need a gasket between the flanges.
    ASTM Grade L7—In addition to handling high heat, these screws stay strong in freezing temperatures without cracking. They're frequently used in industrial refrigeration systems, cold-storage facilities, and pipelines for oil and gas.
    Steel—Unfinished steel screws are best for dry environments, since moisture will cause them to rust. They require little surface prep before applying a finish, so you can apply your own paint or coating.
