Anchors are used to attach an object to a support structure. Common types include concrete anchors, expansion anchors, floor anchors, wall anchors, and specialty anchors.
Bolts are threaded rods or pins that fasten objects together. They usually have a head at one end and a thread at the other. Bolts are secured by threaded nuts, and are available in both metric and non-metric designations.
Industrial pins are cylindrical fasteners that are used to locate, align and join components. They are made out of aluminum, brass, titanium, wood and plastic. Products made from hardened steel, unhardened steel, and stainless steel are also available. Powered industrial pins, that are pneumatically, electrically, or hydraulically actuated, are also available.
Preload springs, spacers and washers are used to provide end-play take up or a constant preload for bearings, gears and other mechanical components and assemblies.
Rivets are headed pins with a point that passes through two pieces of material. Beating or pressing down the point causes it to spread out and form a second head. Rivets can be used to connect two plates or pieces of material together.
Screws are fasteners that consist of a threaded shaft at one end and, typically, a head at the other. They are inserted into solid materials and secured via rotation.
Spring washers are disks of metal that are formed in an irregular shape so that when the washer is loaded it deflects, acts like a spring, and provides a preload between two surfaces.
Washers are disks of metal or non-metallic material placed beneath a nut, an axle bearing, or a joint, to relieve friction, prevent leakage, isolate, prevent loosening, or distribute pressure.
