Heavy Hex Bolt

Heavy hex bolts have oversized hexagonal heads and wider rods. They can withstand higher torque and loads than standard bolts. They are applicable to Bridges, machinery, etc., reducing the risk of peeling under pressure.

Features and parameters

Heavy hex bolts are suitable for projects that do not allow for malfunctions, such as skyscraper frames, mining equipment or railway tracks. Their strength and size can fix heavy machinery or large steel beams. Farmers use them to build barns. The factory relies on them to fix the conveyor belt system.

Heavy hexagon bolts are thicker and stronger than standard hex bolts and are suitable for heavy machinery, structural steel or Bridges. They are made of grade 5 steel of ASTM A325 or SAE J429. Concise and neat, with excellent grip strength. Size: ½ inches to 4 inches.

Heavy hexagonal bolts are strong and durable, just like tanks. Its thick rod and oversized head can prevent the thread from slipping even when repeatedly turned. They can be used for logging equipment, bulldozers or steel frame warehouses. There are two materials available: galvanized and stainless steel. Professional tip: Add gaskets to protect softer materials.

Precautions

First of all, when tightening heavy hex bolts, the force should be appropriate. If they are tightened too loosely, the components are prone to shaking. If they are tightened too tightly, the bolts may break. Secondly, these hex bolts are prone to rust, especially in a humid environment. Therefore, anti-rust treatment should be done well, such as applying anti-rust paint. In addition, before installation, it is necessary to check whether the bolts have cracks or deformations. Bolts with problems must never be used; otherwise, it will affect the safety of the entire structure.
