Hex Head Bolt
The most common type of fastener, a hex head bolt is designed to be tightened with a standard spanner or ratchet and socket. Popularly used in all assemblies, a standard hex bolt is a staple across the world. Manufactured to ISO 4014 or DIN 931, and therefore includes an unthreaded section of the shaft. A hex drive permits a greater torque load to be applied to the joint over most other drive types.A standard spanner or ratchet is typically used to fit this product.

Socket Head
​Also known as an Allen screw or Allen bolt, or simply a cap screw. Socket Head Cap screws are a more modern alternative standard machine fastener to the standard hexagon headed bolt or setscrew, as found on much modern machinery. Generally manufactured with a partial thread beyond a certain length and nominal diameter combination, but occasionally some stock may include a fully threaded shank at the same combination. A guaranteed fully threaded variant is also available in some sizes, please call to confirm.

Trox Head
Also known as star, 6 lobe, and hexalobular internal. Torx screws are commonly found on cars, motorcycles, bicycle brake systems, hard disk drives, computer systems and consumer electronics and are becoming increasingly popular. Once, they were typically used in applications requiring tamper resistance; as drivers became more common, tamper-resistant variants were developed. The Torx design allows for a higher torque to be exerted than a similarly sized conventional hex socket head. This button head variant is an attractive screw, typically used where aesthetics are important, or where a lower profile domed finish is required.

Grub Screw
A set screw or grub screw is a type of screw generally used to secure an object within or against another object, normally without using a nut. The most common examples are securing a pulley or gear to a shaft. Set screws are usually headless (also called blind), meaning that the screw is fully threaded and has no head projecting past the major diameter of the screw thread
