Industrial Applications

Machinery and Automation: Precision shoulder screws serve as reliable pivots, guides, and supports in moving parts.
Tool and Die Making: Used where slip or bearing surfaces are required, our products are trusted by every leading shoulder screws manufacturer for demanding tooling environments.
Automotive Assemblies: Accurately position and move mechanical parts with a smooth motion with alloy shoulder screws designed to endure high-stress conditions in the automotive industry.
Manufacturing Jigs and Fixtures: Serve as locating pins and pivot points with precision socket head shoulder screws engineered to exact tolerances for repeatable performance.
Electronics and Robotics: Provide smooth rotational or linear movement, and are highly durable, stainless steel shoulder screws are recommended for corrosive and high-cycle robotic systems.

Product Description

Socket Head Shoulder Screws feature a precision-machined shoulder larger in diameter than the threaded portion and a hexagonal head with an internal drive head. The smooth shoulder area ensures a long-lasting bearing surface for components to rotate or slide with little friction. The thread engages securely to fasten the assembly. These screws are heat-treated for strength and produced to tight tolerances for concentricity and smoothness of the shoulder, meeting ISO 7379 and related standards. For specialized requirements, custom shoulder screws solutions are available in alloy steel for strength and stainless steel for corrosion resistance, with various surface finishes for environmental protection.
