What Are Hex Bolts?
Hex bolts, also known as hex cap screws or machine bolts, are threaded fasteners with a six-sided (hexagonal) head. They are used to join metal to metal, or metal to wood, in a wide variety of construction and industrial applications. Their hex head allows for easy tightening with wrenches and socket tools, providing high torque and firm fastening.
Hex bolts come in multiple sizes, materials, thread types, and finishes — making them a versatile solution across sectors such as infrastructure, heavy machinery, automotive assembly, furniture manufacturing, and steel fabrication.
The Manufacturing Process of Hex Bolts
High-quality hex bolts start with high-grade raw materials — typically carbon steel, alloy steel, or stainless steel. At OMAN OCEAN TRADING, the bolts offered are sourced from certified manufacturers who follow international production standards like ASTM, ISO, DIN, and BS.
Here’s a brief overview of how hex bolts are made:
- Material Selection & Cutting
Steel rods are selected based on required strength and resistance characteristics. These rods are cut into lengths called blanks. - Cold or Hot Forging
The blank is shaped into the desired bolt form using either cold forging (for smaller bolts) or hot forging (for larger bolts or high-strength grades). - Thread Rolling
Threads are created using dies through a rolling process — ensuring the grain flow of the material remains intact for superior strength. - Heat Treatment
Depending on the grade, the bolts may be heat-treated to enhance hardness and durability. - Surface Finishing
A variety of coatings are applied to enhance corrosion resistance. Zinc-plated, black oxide, and hot-dip galvanized are some popular finishes available at OMAN OCEAN TRADING. - Inspection & Testing
Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control including tensile strength testing, dimensional checks, and coating thickness measurement.
Applications of Hex Bolts
Hex bolts are a universal necessity in both structural and non-structural applications. Here’s where they are typically used:
- Construction: Steel structures, building frames, bridges, and prefabricated components
- Machinery Assembly: Connecting moving parts, base frames, and heavy-duty equipment
- Automotive Industry: Engine parts, chassis joints, and bodywork
- Furniture and Interiors: Fastening wooden and metal components
- Oil & Gas, Marine, and Power Sectors: Where extreme pressure and environmental resistance are required
Whether you’re assembling a steel warehouse or bolting down an industrial-grade machine, hex bolts from OMAN OCEAN TRADING deliver performance that stands the test of time.
