Allen Button Head BHCS
The Socket Button Head Screw design as per ISO 7380-1 is primarily used where a lower profile head is required and for aesthetical reasons.
Button head socket cap screws combine the similar shape of a pan head with the driver of a socket head. The socket driver is ideal for low clearance applications that require a large area clamping face.
Compared to a standard socket head cap screw, button heads have a lower and wider profile which can be useful when the clamping material is too thin to counter-bore.
A button head socket cap screw’s large diameter face also helps to distribute force more evenly. They are also known as Button Head Cap Screws or BHCS.
These screws can take a lower tightening torque as compared to the DIN 912 screws.
Hence, these screws are not recommended for high demand applications.
Available in Hexagonal Socket drive and 6-Lobe (Hexalobular) drive for higher reliability.

Allen Cap SHCS
Socket caps have a small cylindrical head with tall vertical sides. Allen (hex socket) drive is a six-sided recess [Internal Hex Socket] for use with an Allen wrench (hex key). This design is the workhorse of the machine building industry.
The most important reasons for the increasing use of socket head cap screws in industry are safety, reliability and economy. All three reasons are directly traceable to the superior performance of socket screws vs. other fasteners, and that is due to their superior strength and advanced design. Available in full thread and half thread.
Standards: DIN 912, ISO 4762, Low Head – DIN 7984
Materials: Alloy Steel, Stainless Steel – AISI 304 and AISI 316, Titanium
Size Range: M1.6 to M24 up to 200mm length. 2-56UNC to 1″

Allen CSK
Flat head screws are used for flush mounting of sections, usually where one part slides over another or one part is mounted on another. Countersunk head screws, like button heads and low heads, are limited by configuration in their tensile strength capability. Because of this, they should not be used in applications requiring full strength, where Socket Head Cap Screws should be used.
The head angle for metric countersunk socket screws is 90 degrees up to & including M20 and 60 degrees over M20. The head angle for Imperial is different – Unified is 82 degrees and British thread forms are 90 degrees.
Usage : Machine Guards, Hinges, Covers, multiple level assemblies etc.
Available in Hexagonal socket drive and the improved 6-Lobe (Hexalobular) drive.
Allen (Hex socket) Flat Head Screws are available as per ISO 10642 (similar to DIN 7991 which is now obsolete).

Captive Screws
Captive screws basically are specially designed to lock into position in a hole, enabling easy setting up and removing of the attached pieces even without the complete removal of the screw.
A conventional screw typically passes through a clearance hole in one part and then screws into a threaded hole in a second part — so the first part is clamped to the second.
However, when the fastener is unscrewed from the threaded hole in the second component, it can easily separate from the first one.
A captive screw is designed to prevent this from occurring. It can freely rotate within the first component, with some axial movement, but it’s unable to separate from it.
USES : Captive screws are used when fasteners must remain attached to equipment, such as in cover panels. They are a requirement for several machinery safety standards.
They provide a secure joining, and avoid fastener loss or damage that might be caused by a loose part.
Captive screws come with Philips, Allen head or standard heads that are designed for usage with drill equipment and ordinary screwdrivers.
Captive screws can be found in several configurations and sizes much like the conventional screws premeditated to be utilized for large number of applications.
Material: Stainless Steel AISI-304.SS-316 on special order.

Carriage Bolts
We offer a wide range of metal bolts and studs. What is the difference between screws and bolts?
Bolts can be described as long shafts with a distinct head on one side. These are generally partially threaded. A fully threaded bolt is referred to as a screw.
Square Neck Carriage Bolts
This is known by different names such as Carriage Bolts, Coach bolts/ Round Head Square neck bolt, Mushroom Head Square neck bolt etc. Useful for fastening wood and metal together.
It is distinguished from other bolts by its shallow mushroom head followed by a square neck, while the shank cross section of the bolt is circular.
This gives the bolt its self locking feature. The square neck grips into the part being fixed preventing the head from turning when the nut is tightened.
Standard – DIN 603

Flange Bolts
We offer a wide range of metal bolts and studs. What is the difference between screws and bolts?
Bolts can be described as long shafts with a distinct head on one side. These are generally partially threaded. A fully threaded bolt is referred to as a screw.
Flange Bolts
Flange bolts, also called Hex Flange Screws, are a special type of bolt which have a flange below its head. They look like a bolt with a washer attached to the head.
The flange provides a more even distribution of the load. Flange bolts eliminate the need to use a washer giving higher flexibility in a wide range of operations.
Standard – DIN 6921.
Materials – Mild Steel and Stainless Steel.

Low Head Torx Machine Screws 6-Lobe
The notion of a drive with hexalobular sockets are a decisive step in developing drives better adapted to manual and automated assembly. This drive is becoming increasingly popular throughout the world.
Low head socket cap screws are designed to be used in special applications where head height clearance is a problem. Because of their reduced head height and smaller socket size, they normally cannot be pre-loaded as high as a standard socket head cap screw and should not be subjected to high dynamic loads.
Suitable for use in parts too thin for standard height socket cap screw and for applications with limited clearances.Available with Hexagonal Socket Head and 6-Lobe (ISO-14580) Socket Head for more reliability.
