Hex Tap Bolt Features & Advantages
Also known as tap bolts and hex head bolts, hex tap bolts are fully threaded fasteners with chamfered points. These fasteners have hexagon-shaped heads and are designed to be installed with a wrench or socket.With a fully threaded shank, hex tap bolts are ideal for drilled and tapped holes where using a stud and nut on each end would be unsuitable for the application function. Able to join and secure an array of materials, hex tap bolts include benefits for industrial fastenings, such as:
- Versatility of use
- Hex-head design
- High-strength tensile properties
Industrial Uses of Hex Tap Bolts
Hex tap bolts are an ideal industrial fastener due to their favorable characteristics for high-strength fastening solutions. These fasteners are installed into drilled or tapped holes, using the fully threaded shank for exceptional holding power. Featuring high tensile strength, hex tap bolts can withstand the harsh or corrosive environments of their applications. Hex tap bolts are commonly found in construction, automotive, manufacturing, and agricultural applications for:- Exterior woodworking construction
- Pulley belt tension adjustments
- Machine fastening for engines and motors
- Maintenance and repair

While similar in various ways, hex tap bolts and hex cap screws offer different features for fastening solutions. Both are available in fully threaded configurations, but hex tap bolts always have a fully threaded shank regardless of size. Hex cap screws can be threaded up to the built-in shoulder, which increases tensile strength, and partially threaded lengths may vary.For installation, tap bolts should be assembled with a nut to tighten the assembly; hex cap screws can be used with a nut component, but it is not required. We stock hex tap bolts and hex cap screws to meet the requirements of your assemblies.
