Industrial Fasteners — Complete Guide to Types, Strength Grades, Materials & Applications

Industrial fasteners — bolts, screws, nuts, washers, studs, anchors, and rivets — are the load-bearing components that hold machinery, structures, and vehicles together. Often called the "rice of industry," they determine the safety, service life, and reliability of every assembly. This guide covers fastener types, ISO/SAE/ASTM strength grades, materials, coatings, and application selection to help you source the right fastener for any high-load program.

🔩 What Are Industrial Fasteners?

An industrial fastener is a standardized mechanical component used to join two or more parts through a removable threaded or permanent non-threaded connection. Unlike welding or adhesives, fasteners allow the joint to be disassembled for service, repair, or replacement — which is critical for heavy equipment, automotive, and structural applications. The four key engineering properties of any fastener are tensile strength, yield strength, corrosion resistance, and fatigue life, all of which are determined by material, heat treatment, and thread-rolling process.

DA Fluid supplies the full industrial fastener portfolio — from M3 micro-screws to M64 heavy hex structural bolts — in carbon steel (Grade 4.6 to 12.9), alloy steel (A193 B7 / B16), stainless steel (A2-70 / A4-80), brass, and titanium, conforming to DIN, ISO, ANSI/ASME, JIS, BS, and GB standards with full traceability under ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 quality systems.

📋 Types of Industrial Fasteners

Our catalog covers every fastener category used across heavy industry, construction, automotive, and energy:

🔩 Hex Bolts & Heavy Hex Structural Bolts

DIN 933 / DIN 931 / ISO 4014 / ISO 4017 / ASTM A325 / A490. Partially and fully threaded hex head bolts for structural steel, machinery, and bridges. M6–M64.

🛠️ Socket Head Cap Screws (SHCS)

DIN 912 / ISO 4762 / ASME B18.3. High-tensile Allen bolts up to Class 12.9. Ideal for hydraulic manifolds, engine assemblies, and tight-clearance machinery.

🔗 Threaded Rods, Studs & Nuts

DIN 975 / DIN 976 studs, fully threaded rods, hex nuts (DIN 934), lock nuts (DIN 985 nylon-insert), flange nuts (DIN 6921). For flanges, engines, and tension assemblies.

🧱 Anchor Bolts & Construction Fasteners

Wedge anchors, sleeve anchors, chemical anchors, L-bolts, J-bolts, U-bolts, and foundation bolts. For concrete fastening, structural steel base plates, and sign / tower mounting.

🔘 Washers & Locking Elements

DIN 125 flat / DIN 127 spring lock / DIN 9021 fender / DIN 6796 conical / Nord-Lock wedge-lock pairs. Distribute load, prevent loosening, and protect mating surfaces.

🛡️ Stainless Steel & Special-Alloy Fasteners

A2-70 (304) / A4-80 (316) / B8 / B8M / B16 / Titanium Grade 2 & 5. For marine, chemical, food-grade, subsea, and cryogenic applications where corrosion is mission-critical.
