    Hexagon head cap screws are a type of threaded bolt, characterised by their six-sided hexagonal-shaped head and need a <a href="https://samsindus.probsoltech.com/shop?limit=12&amp;category=hand-tool&amp;sub_category=wrench">adjustable wrench In chennai</a> or a socket for installation. They are more locally known as Hexagonal Head Bolt or Hex Bolt. The six-sided head provides a larger surface-bearing area for better clamping. Hex bolts can be either fully threaded or partially threaded.<p>They are available in a choice of types, sizes, materials, and finishes, providing the freedom and flexibility to select the bolt best suited to the task or application. The strong tensile properties of the bolt have resulted in the hex bolts being widely used as the staple fastener. As these are primary used for heavy-duty&nbsp;<a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/fasteners-fixings/">fixing and fastening</a>&nbsp;applications This could include:</p>
    
    <p>Within construction projects</p>
    
    <p>During the erection, repair, and maintenance of buildings, bridges, and road infrastructure</p>
    
    <p>Machinery assemblies</p>
    
    <p>Woodworking tasks such as fastening frames</p>
    
    <p>Engineering applications</p>
    
    <p>Vehicle and automotive</p>
    
    <p>Hexagonal <strong>head </strong><strong>bolt</strong><strong>s</strong> can be used either in pre-tapped holes or with nuts. The hexagon-shaped head ensures that it is easy to grip hex bolts from multiple angles, using different types of tools including a&nbsp;<a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/hand-tools/spanners-sockets-wrenches/socket-wrenches/?applied-dimensions=4294380031">hex bolt wrench</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/hand-tools/spanners-sockets-wrenches/socket-sets/">socket sets</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/hand-tools/spanners-sockets-wrenches/spanners/">spanners</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/hand-tools/screwdrivers-hex-torx-keys/hex-keys/">hex keys</a>, and&nbsp;<a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/hand-tools/spanners-sockets-wrenches/spanners/?applied-dimensions=4291156836">ratchet spanners</a>.

    <p>Types of Hexagonal Head Bbolt in Chennai</p>
    
    <p>Hex bolts can be categorised in several different ways – chiefly their sizing, the material or finish used in their manufacture, and whether they are fully or partially threaded.</p>
    
    <p>The following sections provide further detail on some of the key hex bolt types, giving you the knowledge, you need in order to make a fully-informed buying decision.</p>
    
    <p>Hex Bolt Threading</p>
    
    <p>The thread of a hex bolt, also known as the screw thread, is the helical structure which comprises the main body of the bolt. It uses rotational force to drive the bolt firmly and securely into place, helping to provide easier entrance and exit into the material whilst also providing added grip. Both fully-threaded and partially-threaded hex bolts are available.</p>

    Partially-threaded hex bolts are only threaded from partway down the bolt's length to the end. An unthreaded shank (also known as grip length) joins the threaded shank and the head. Partially-threaded bolts provide strong levels of resistance. Strain on the unthreaded part of the shank is prevented by the design which ensures that section has no weak spots. Partial thread hex bolts are ideal for applications requiring extreme holding force and high precision. To meet the needs of any industrial use, we - at Sams Industrial Needs, offer a variety of partial thread hex cap screw configurations:<p>Property Class 8.8 in plain or zinc finishes</p>
    
    <p>Property Class 10.9 in plain or zinc finishes</p>
    
    <p>Property Class 12.9 in a plain finish</p>
    
    <p>A2 Style with 304 stainless steel options</p>
    
    <p>A4 Style with 316 stainless steel options.</p>

    Fully-threaded hex bolts are threaded from the end of the bolt right up to the head. They are ideal for use in heavy-duty fastening applications and are best suited to installation in pre-threaded holes. Properly installed fully-threaded hex bolts are designed to spread the pressure across the full length of the bolt, providing a greater level of strength than partially-threaded alternatives. Full thread hex head screws are an excellent fit for projects that need considerable gripping strength. We at <a href="http://www.samsindusneeds.com">www.samsindusneeds.com</a>, maintain an extensive inventory of full thread hex bolts, including:<p>Property Class 8.8 in plain or zinc finishes</p>
    
    <p>Property Class 10.9 in plain or zinc finishes</p>
    
    <p>Property Class 12.9 in a plain finish</p>
    
    <p>A2 Style with 304 stainless steel options</p>
    
    <p>A4 Style with 316 stainless steel options.</p>
    
    <p>Material Composition</p>
    
    <p>Like any other fastener, the Hex bolts are also typically manufactured from steel or stainless steel. It does not mean that it is the norm and are available in other materials including PVC. Additionally, different coatings and finishes are available providing various qualities and appearances to suit a wide range of applications. Popular hex bolt finishes include - <a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/fasteners-fixings/screws-bolts/hex-bolts/?applied-dimensions=4294861958">Bright zinc-plated</a>, <a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/fasteners-fixings/screws-bolts/hex-bolts/?applied-dimensions=4294813859">Zinc hex bolt</a>, <a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/fasteners-fixings/screws-bolts/hex-bolts/?applied-dimensions=4293331051">Clear passivated</a>, Black oxide, and <a href="https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/fasteners-fixings/screws-bolts/hex-bolts/?applied-dimensions=4294861613">Plain</a>.</p>
    
    <p>Steel Hex Bolt<strong>:</strong> Available in varying grades and strengths including EN8 and EN 16 Steel. The higher the number of the steel, the stronger it will be.</p>
    
    <p>Stainless Steel Hex Bolt<strong>:</strong> Stainless Steel hex bolts are a popular choice when it comes to usage in high corrosives situations like Oil infrastructure, railways, etc. The zinc-plated is a commonly used alternative for SS hex bolts.</p>
    
    <p>Brass Hex Bolt<strong>:</strong> These are not a popular choice due to the high cost despite its corrosion-resistant property.</p>
    
    <p>Measuring The Hex Bolt</p>
    
    <p>There are several factors to be taken into consideration when choosing the <a href="https://samsindusneeds.com/shop?limit=12&amp;category=fastener&amp;sub_category=bolt">hexagonal head bolt in Chennai</a><strong> </strong>for a purpose. The following details need to be measured to arrive at the exact hex bolt dimension and size. </p>
    
    <p>The&nbsp;<strong>length</strong>&nbsp;of the bolt which is measured from the end of the bolt up to under the head,</p>
    
    <p><strong>The </strong><strong>Thread size</strong><strong>,</strong>&nbsp;typically using ISO metric or M-style measurements, and</p>
    
    <p>The<strong> </strong>number of threads per inch or <strong>thread pitch</strong>. The finer the bolt, the more threads per inch and the higher the thread pitch.</p>
    
    <p>The ISO metric thread size system is widely used around the world. It is a handy international standard for measuring thread sizes across an array of different screw and bolt types. Each size is denoted by the letter ‘M' followed by a number. This number indicates the outer diameter of the thread, measured in millimetres. As an example, if a contractor is using a <a href="https://samsindusneeds.com/shop?limit=12&amp;category=fastener&amp;sub_category=bolt">hex head bolt in Chennai</a>, with a thread size of M10 would have an outer diameter of 10 mm.</p>
