stainless steel hexagonal bolt is a fastener with a six-sided (hexagonal) head, designed to be driven by a wrench, and made from stainless steel, offering corrosion resistance and durability. These bolts are commonly used in various applications, from general construction to machinery, due to their strength and resistance to rust. 

Key characteristics:

Hexagonal Head:

The six-sided head allows for a firm grip and easy tightening with a wrench or socket. 

Stainless Steel:

Provides excellent resistance to corrosion and rust, making it suitable for various environments. 

Thread Type:

Hex bolts can be fully threaded or partially threaded (with a shank). 

Applications:

Used in construction, machinery, automotive, and other industries where a strong and reliable fastener is needed. 

Material Grades:

Common grades include 304 and 316, with 316 offering superior corrosion resistance, especially in marine or chlorine-rich environments. 

Standards:

Often conform to standards like DIN 933 (fully threaded) and DIN 931 (partially threaded). 

Installation:

Typically used with a nut and washer, providing a secure and stable connection.
