Stainless Steel Wing Machine Bolt Screws, available in grades 304 and 316, are specialized fasteners designed for applications requiring quick and easy adjustments or disassembly without the need for specialized tools. The distinctive “wing” or “thumb” head allows for hand-tightening, making them ideal for frequently adjusted components or access panels.

Key Features:

• Material (304 Stainless Steel):
  • Excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for a wide range of environments including marine and chemical applications.
  • Good strength and durability.
  • Non-magnetic.
  • Commonly used in food processing equipment, medical devices, and general industrial applications.
• Material (316 Stainless Steel):
  • Superior corrosion resistance compared to 304, especially in chloride-rich environments (e.g., saltwater, some industrial chemicals).
  • Higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion.
  • Also non-magnetic.
  • Preferred for marine applications, pharmaceutical equipment, and harsh chemical processing.
• Wing Head Design:
  • Allows for hand-tightening and loosening, eliminating the need for wrenches or screwdrivers.
  • Ideal for quick adjustments, frequent removal, or temporary installations.
  • Provides a good grip for manual operation.
• Machine Thread:
  • Designed to mate with a pre-tapped hole or a nut, providing a secure and precise connection.
  • Ensures a strong and reliable fastening for mechanical applications.

Applications:

• Marine Equipment: Fastening access panels, covers, and adjustable components on boats and docks due to superior corrosion resistance.
• Food & Beverage Processing: Securing equipment parts that require regular cleaning or adjustment, leveraging the hygienic properties of stainless steel.
• Medical & Pharmaceutical Devices: Ideal for components needing frequent access or sterilization, benefiting from the cleanability and corrosion resistance.
• Laboratory Equipment: Used in settings where quick setup or modification of instruments is necessary.
• Electronics & Enclosures: Securing covers or panels on electronic enclosures that need frequent user access.
• Jigs & Fixtures: In manufacturing and woodworking, for quick-release clamping or positioning components.
• Furniture & Displays: For adjustable or modular furniture where hand-tightening is convenient and a clean aesthetic is desired.
• HVAC & Ductwork: Securing access doors or filters for maintenance.

Stainless Steel 304 and 316 Wing Machine Bolt Screws offer a versatile fastening solution where corrosion resistance, strength, and tool-free operation are paramount, making them a valuable choice across numerous industries.
