Metal bolt

Bolts are simple, cost-effective and versatile fasteners that are indispensable in many areas of industry, construction and transport. They provide a quick and releasable connection and are often used when components are subjected to shear loads. Unlike rivets, bolts are easy to undo and are therefore ideal for temporary applications, such as securing containers in transport or scaffolding on construction sites.

For applications where there is a longitudinal tensile load, threaded bolts are required to prevent the connection from unintentionally loosening. These threaded bolts offer additional stability and safety, especially under mechanical loads. At Americom you will find a wide range of bolts made of nickel-plated and galvanised brass, steel, aluminium and polyamide, available with and without thread (UNC thread). Our bolts are available as hexagonal or round bolts to meet different technical requirements.

For small quantities (one packaging unit), a minimum quantity surcharge of €10 may also be charged. If the length you require is not available in our standard options or you have specific dimensional requirements, please do not hesitate to contact us - we will be happy to advise you by phone or email to find the best solution for your project.

Product advantages of metal studs:

1. Versatile application possibilities

Bolts are suitable for numerous industrial and construction applications where a reliable and easily detachable connection is required. In industries such as transport and construction, bolts are used primarily when components are subjected to shear loads. Our bolts made of different materials offer the right solution for every application - whether for temporary installations or permanent structures.

2. Threaded bolts for additional safety

Threaded studs are the ideal choice for applications that are subject to longitudinal tensile loads. They prevent unintentional loosening of the connection and offer a particularly high level of stability. Our threaded bolts are available in various designs, including hexagonal and round bolts, to meet different requirements.

3. Different materials for maximum flexibility

At Americom, you will find bolts made from a variety of materials to suit the specific requirements of your application:

• Nickel-plated and galvanised brass: offers reliable corrosion protection and a long service life, ideal for outdoor applications.
• Steel: High strength and stability, perfect for applications where mechanical loads occur.
• Aluminium: Lightweight yet robust, ideal for applications where weight plays a decisive role.
• Polyamide: Offers a lightweight, non-conductive solution that is ideal for sensitive applications.

Flexibility in length specifications and custom sizes:

Our studs are available in many standard lengths, usually specified in 5 mm increments. This staggering ensures that the drop-down lists in our online shop remain clear. However, if a specific length is required in intermediate sizes, we can also offer bolts in 1 mm increments. Please note that in this case, the price of the next higher 5 mm increment will be charged and set-up costs may be incurred for the customised product.

Areas of application:

• Transport industry: Bolts are used to securely fasten containers, trailers and other transported goods as they provide a reliable and releasable connection.
• Construction: In scaffolding and other temporary structures, bolts ensure that components are securely connected and can be released quickly if necessary.
• Mechanical engineering: Threaded bolts offer additional safety in machines and systems where components are subjected to both transverse and longitudinal loads.
• Electrical engineering: Polyamide bolts are ideal for applications where electrical conductivity must be avoided, e.g. in electronic devices and housings.

FAQ: Frequently asked questions about metal bolts

Are bolts also suitable for longitudinal loads?
Yes, for longitudinal loads you should use threaded bolts to ensure that the connection does not loosen by itself. These bolts provide additional stability.

Can I order custom sizes from Americom?
Yes, we offer bolts in intermediate sizes that are available in 1 mm increments. For these custom sizes, the price of the next higher 5 mm increment will be charged and set-up charges may apply.

Is there a minimum quantity surcharge for small orders?
Yes, a minimum quantity surcharge of €10 may be charged for small quantities (one packaging unit). Please contact us for further information.
