An Introduction to the Bolt head types and Parts of Bolt

Image
Bolts are an essential industrial fastener used to fasten and secure objects with the help of industrial nuts. Bolts are generally threaded fasteners that always use with industrial nuts. Their primary function is to attach aligned unthreaded holes by being placed through the aligned holes and secured with the bolt’s nut. A bolt is mainly comprised of the following components:  Bolt Shaft: The shaft is a cylindrical portion that bears the shear forces acting on the bolt and secures the radial movements of the parts.  Parts of a Bolt:  Head:  It is that portion of a bolt from where a spanner or wrench can hold it (to make it tight or loose). Shank:  The body of the bolt is the unthreaded part of a bolt placed under the head. Its length is measured from the head to the start of the transition to the threads. The shank provides a precise and smooth connection when installed in a bolt-hole. Pressure is more disrupted in this porti...
