This product page details the specifications, benefits, and ideal use cases for our industry-leading hex bolt solution.

Product Overview

Our 10mm hex bolt refers to a high-performance fastener with a hexagonal head, designed to be driven by a wrench or socket. The "10mm" designation indicates the nominal outer diameter of the bolt's thread, conforming to international standards for dimensional consistency. This bolt is a cornerstone component in countless B2B sectors, from automotive manufacturing and industrial equipment to commercial construction and renewable energy projects. We offer a comprehensive range of grades, coatings, and lengths to provide a tailored fastening solution for virtually any engineering challenge, ensuring a perfect match for your specific load-bearing and environmental requirements.

Key Features

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between Grade 8.8, 10.9, and 12.9 for a 10mm hex bolt?

A: The grade indicates the bolt's tensile strength. Grade 8.8 is a medium-strength bolt with a tensile strength of 800 MPa. Grade 10.9 is high-strength (1000 MPa), and Grade 12.9 is a very high-strength alloy bolt (1200 MPa). Selection depends on the required clamp force and dynamic loads in the application.

Q2: Can I use a standard 10mm hex bolt in outdoor or corrosive environments?

A: A plain or black-oxide bolt will rust. For outdoor use, specify a corrosion-resistant coating such as hot-dip galvanizing (for thick, durable protection) or zinc plating with a chromate passivation (e.g., yellow zinc) for good resistance. For severe conditions, consider stainless steel or advanced coatings like dacromet.

Q3: What size wrench or socket is needed for a 10mm hex bolt?

A: A standard M10 hex bolt (ISO 4014) typically requires a 17mm wrench or socket. A reduced-head bolt (ISO 4017) typically uses a 16mm tool. Always confirm the head size according to the relevant standard.

Q4: Do you provide technical data sheets and certificates?

A: Yes. We provide full material test certificates (3.1 Mill Certificates per EN 10204) for all graded bolts, detailing chemical composition and mechanical properties. Technical data sheets with torque values and installation guidelines are also available.

Q5: What are the packaging options for bulk orders?

A: We offer industry-standard packaging including sturdy cardboard boxes, sealed plastic bags within master cartons, or heavy-duty sacks. Bulk palletized shipments are also available. We can tailor packaging to your warehouse or production line needs.
