Brass Hex Bolts for Engineering & Industrial Applications
Product Overview
A Brass Hex Bolt is an externally threaded fastener with a six-sided head designed for installation with a suitable wrench or tool. Therefore, it is useful where a secure, serviceable and detachable bolted connection is required.
Brass is selected for applications where corrosion resistance, machinability and electrical conductivity are important considerations. In addition, the required size, thread, grade and finish should be selected according to the service conditions and applicable project specification.
Brass Hex Bolt Materials & Grades
Brass hex bolts can be supplied in suitable brass grades and configurations according to the required dimensions, service conditions and application. Moreover, grade selection should follow the applicable purchase specification.
Common Material Options
Brass
Suitable for general fastening applications where corrosion resistance and machinability are important.
Machining Brass
Suitable for applications requiring accurately machined dimensions and consistent threads.
Corrosion-Resistant Brass
Used where resistance to normal atmospheric and service-related corrosion is required.
Conductive Brass
Selected for certain electrical and instrumentation applications where conductivity matters.
Custom Brass Grade
Grade requirements can be reviewed according to the drawing, specification and service conditions.
Custom Configuration
Sizes, threads, lengths and finishes can be discussed for project-specific requirements.
Brass Hex Bolt Specifications
Dimensions, brass grade, thread configuration, finish and applicable standards can be selected according to the project drawing or purchase specification. Therefore, the final configuration should match the required service conditions.
For reference, ASTM fastener standards cover specifications and testing considerations for many types of fasteners.
