Description
Tap bolts are similar to hex bolts except they are fully threaded no matter what their length. They are designed to be used in drilled and tapped holes. They are used in applications where a stud with a nut on each end would be impractical.Tap Bolts are fully threaded and are made of low carbon steel, these fasteners are applicable for most low strength commercial and industrial uses. Zinc plating, retards the corrosion rate in a normal atmosphere. Tensile Strength: 60,000 psi minimum. Grade 5 is the most common grade used in manufacturing assembly.
Tap bolt length is measured from under the head to the end of the bolt.

Read MoreQuick ViewHex 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.
