Hex Cap Screws, Grades 8
A hex cap screw is a six-sided bolt with a trimmed hex head and a washer face on the bearing surface. Informally, it is also called a Finished Hex Bolt. Hex cap screws have tighter tolerances than standard bolts of the same size, and so are often used where precise tolerances are needed. The standard hex screw specifications include ASTM A449 and SAE J429 Grade-8.

Square plate washers are made from low carbon steel and have a larger surface area than round washers. Since they develop more friction when tightened against wood, they are often found in timber construction.
Often, square plate washers are used to attach treated lumber sill plates to concrete foundations. Another common use is using square plate washers to attach wood beams to the walls of a garage, and them mount the garage door rails and equipment. -

Hex Tap Bolts
The major distinguishing feature of hex tap bolts is that they are always fully threaded from under the head to the tip, no matter the size. Other features, such as chamfered point or washer bearing surface under the head, may be present, or may not. Tap bolts are meant to be used nuts to secure two objects together, but they also will fully seat into a tapped hole to secure one material to a base material.
They are available in Grade 2, Grade 5, and in Stainless Steel. -

Set Screws, Cup Point
Set Screws are essentially a headless bolt, which has a hex socket in the driving end. They are commonly used when a protruding head would be in the way of other moving parts. Their most common function is to secure two parts together, but without a pre-determined positioning point between them. A prime example is fixing a pulley wheel along a drive shaft, where the set screw in the wheel’s hub is tightened into the side of the drive shaft and holds them tight due strictly to friction.
Set screws are available either as a black hard steel alloy, or as stainless steel.
Because of its headless shape, and how it bores through its hole, a set screw is also known as a “grub screw”.

Mro Thread-Locker, 50ml Bottle
MRO Solutions thread-locking products are anaerobic compounds formulated for sealing, joining, fastening, retaining, and generally locking together metal components. Unlike other thread-lockers, MRO compounds are non-surface sensitive, so they do not require use of primers for curing.
Once parts are mated with MRO thread-lockers, they form a unitized assembly that resists vibration. In addition, the mated parts are sealed against attack from corrosion, internal rust, seizure, solvents, gases, and other chemicals. -

Aluminum Key Hole Washer
Aluminum key-hole washers are commonly used with combo truss machine screws and sidewalk bolts. They are used as an additional backing plate when storm panels keyways do not line up correctly. They are also often used to provide additional backing when sidewalk bolts have been changed out to truss head screws. They can be placed on after panels are installed.
