Commonly used as cast-in-place anchors, J bolts provide strong support and stability with the shape hooking the bolt in place so that it will not come loose.  These anchor bolts are used to support structural steel columns, bridge railing, light pole fixtures, highway sign construction, and many other structure based applications.

 

 U Bolts are shaped like the letter U, with threaded arms advancing from the curved base.  The threaded ends of the U bolt are designed to be inserted through drilled holes and used with washers and nuts.  U bolts can also be fitted with a cross piece and used to attach objects to pipe, poles or beams.

 

Foundation Bolts are used to attach forms or structures to concrete foundations. They consist of a threaded end for a washer and nut and an angled end to set in the foundation. Foundation bolts are used in various construction projects from simple homes to large commercial buildings and dams. Anchor bolts are set in concrete foundation forms used to support building construction, posts, highway signs, porch, and deck supports.

 

Eye Bolts are basically a screw with a loop at one end and threads at the other end.  Common uses for eyebolts are attaching cables to fixed objects.

 

Lag Bolts or lag screws are used for fastening in wood materials. Commonly used to secure wooden posts and beams, lag bolts are also used for various household type construction projects including attaching wood to masonry or concrete..

 

 Tap Bolts or tap screws are a hex head bolt with a fully threaded shank. They are used in drilled and tapped holes instead of a stud and nut. Tap bolts can be used in  a variety of projects including marine and exterior woodworking applications.

Plow Bolts are generally flat headed and used in low profile applications where a smooth surface is needed.  Plow bolts wear along with the metal surface and best suited for farm equipment, snow plows and similar heavy equipment scraping blades. 

 

Hanger Bolts are a headless fastener that have wood threads at one end and machine threaded stud at the other. Frequently found in furniture to attach table legs, hanger bolts are also used in the timber construction.

Elevator Bolts have a large flat head diameter, square neck and threaded body. Most often used industrial or agricultural belting or conveying systems, elevator bolts are also used with canvas or other soft, pliable materials to keep from pulling through the material. Elevator bolts can be used for leveling household appliances. 

 Carriage Bolts have a round head and square neck that prevents the bolt from turning when the nut is tightened.  Carriage bolts are used in wood or metal construction applications where the square neck grips into the part being fixed preventing the head from turning.

Special Coatings

 

Zinc Metal Coatings has a number of characteristics that make it well-suited for use for protecting iron and steel products from corrosion. Its excellent corrosion resistance in most environments accounts for its successful use as a protective coating on a variety of products and in many exposure conditions. The excellent field performance of zinc coatings results from their ability to form dense, adherent corrosion product films and a rate of corrosion considerably below that of ferrous materials, some 10 to 100 times slower, depending upon the environment. While a fresh zinc surface is quite reactive when exposed to the atmosphere, a thin film of corrosion products develops rapidly, greatly reducing the rate of further corrosion.

 

Teflon Coating are designed for fasteners and hardware when they are to be exposed to harsh chemical and salt water environments and must be able to function without regard to environmental conditions. Many Teflon® industrial coatings withstand severe temperature extremes without loss of physical properties and may used at temperatures as low as -270°C/-454°F.

 

Xylan coatings provide reduced friction, good wear resistant, high temperature resistance, high resistance to abrasion, corrosion resistance, and can be applied to virtually all metals including aluminum, carbon steel, stainless steel, copper and copper alloys, and titanium. In environments where lubricated air is not allowed by OSHA regulations or other considerations, air-cylinder pistons should be coated. The easiest, most effective way to eliminate the oil/air problem and provide proper lubrication for moving parts is to coat air-cylinder pistons with 25 microns/0.001 in. of Xylan 8110, which also extends the lives of the pistons.

 

Cadmium  coatings are applied to iron, steel, brass and aluminum and give excellent resistance to corrosion in most conditions and especially in marine and alkaline environments. Cadmium coatings are particularly useful in the electrical, electronic, aerospace, mining, offshore, automotive and defense industries where they are applied to bolts and other fasteners, chassis, connectors and like components.

 

Hot Dipped Galvanized is a zinc coating, usually hot-dipped, in which the zinc and steel form a metallurgical bond. The thickness of a hot-dipped coating can be varied from a thin zinc/iron alloy layer to heavy applications suitable for extended outdoor exposure. In-line galvanized coatings are applied during the manufacturing process of the hollow or open section, with the cleaned steel section exiting the mill and passing into the galvanizing bath. This coating is usually measured as thickness or as coating mass in grams per square meter and ranges from a minimum of about 100 g/m² upwards, with an average around 175 g/m².
