Baked to Prevent Hydrogen Embrittlement
Our line of plated high-strength 10.9 DIN 6921 Metric Hex Flange Bolts are baked to prevent hydrogen embrittlement.
Baking, also known as de-embrittlement, is a process that helps remove any atomic hydrogen that may have been introduced during the initial electroplating process. This helps the fasteners retain their ductility and prevents any hydrogen embrittlement failures from occurring within your fastened assembly.
Baking also ensures that our line of product meets industry standards for plated 10.9 fasteners.
Why Use a Hex Flange Bolt?
Hex Flange Bolts feature a built-in flange that eliminates the need for a separate washer. Pair this style of fastener with a Hex Flange Nut, Nylon Insert Hex Flange Lock Nut, or an All Metal Hex Flange Lock Nut, and experience superior locking action that is vibration resistant and reduces the likelihood of a failed assembly.
How a Hex Flange Bolt Works
Thanks to the built-in flange, Hex Flange Bolts work to spread the clamping load over a wider area, creating a tighter, more secure bond between the fastened components in your assembly. Hex Flange Bolts are also the preferred choice when fastening together metal to metal components.
