Flange Bolts

Flange Bolts are high-strength fasteners with a built-in washer-like flange beneath the hexagonal head. The flange distributes the clamping load, reducing the risk of damage to the material and eliminating the need for a separate washer in many applications.

Industrial Applications

Flange Bolts are widely used in:

  • Electrical panels and assemblies: Provide firm fastening with fewer components by eliminating extra washers.
  • Automotive industry: Commonly used in engines, transmissions, and chassis assemblies for vibration-resistant fastening.
  • Construction and heavy machinery: Secure structural and mechanical components in demanding applications.
  • Agricultural equipment: Offer high clamping strength for machinery exposed to outdoor conditions.
  • Oil, gas, and power sectors: Used in high-pressure and vibration-prone environments for stable connections.

Product Description

Flange Bolts are designed with a hexagonal head and a circular flange beneath, which distributes the fastening pressure over a larger surface. This design improves load distribution, prevents loosening under vibration, and reduces assembly time by eliminating separate washers. Flange bolts are available with serrated or non-serrated flanges—serrated types provide additional locking power, while non-serrated offer smooth load distribution. Due to their strength and reliability, flange bolts are widely used in automotive, construction, and heavy equipment industries.
