Product Description

Nib Head Bolts are manufactured with a flat or slightly rounded head and ribs underneath, which penetrate the surface during the installation. Nibs stop the bolt from turning when torque is applied to the nut, providing a good, non-slippery hold. They are often used in heavy-duty applications where vibration and load could otherwise loosen conventional bolts. Available in multiple grades and finishes, nib head bolts provide strength, durability, and reliable connections across a variety of industries.
