EURO STYLE Torx Hex Head Flange Bolts

Details Information

Introduction

Hex Flange Screws (also called Flange Bolts) incorporate a large bearing face (flange) into a one piece head design. 

 Features 

The large bearing area under the head of this design provides additional benefits for assemblies over standard hex head cap screws:Large bearing area under the head distributes clamp load over a larger area to resist fatigue loads. Minimizes indentation of the head into the material being bolted together to prevent loosening. Increases the heads resistance to rotation to prevent loosening in high vibration applications. Eliminates the need for a flat washer. 

 Applications 

Hex Flange Screws are commonly called Frame Bolts because of their popularity in the trucking industry for use on assembly of truck frame rails. Hex Flange Screws are also used on pipe flange applications because the larger bearing area under the head helps ensure that the gasket is uniformly compressed to eliminate leaks. Hex Flange Screw can be used in any assembly that is currently using a hex cap screw and washer to eliminate the washer.
