Product Selection Differences for Strut Bolts

When selecting strut bolts, there are several key factors to consider to ensure the right choice for your specific application:

  1. Material: Strut bolts are commonly made of steel, stainless steel, or other metal alloys. The material choice should be based on factors such as strength, corrosion resistance, and compatibility with the environment in which the bolts will be used.

  2. Size and Length: Ensure that the strut bolts are the correct size and length for the application to provide proper support and alignment.

  3. Thread Type: Consider the thread type of the strut bolts based on the corresponding nuts or other fasteners they will be used with, such as coarse or fine threads.

  4. Coating or Finish: Strut bolts may come with various coatings or finishes like zinc plating, galvanization, or black oxide coating to provide corrosion resistance and enhance durability.

  5. Strength and Load Capacity: Determine the required strength and load capacity of the strut bolts based on the intended application and the weight or pressure they will need to withstand.

  6. Head Type: Different head types, such as hex head, socket head, or flange head, offer varying levels of torque resistance and ease of installation.

  7. Compatibility: Ensure that the strut bolts are compatible with the specific type of strut channel or framing system they will be used with.

By evaluating these factors, you can select the most suitable strut bolts for your project or application.
