Carbon Steel Zinc Plated Grade 8.8 Hexagon Flange Bolt
Product Overview
Grade 8.8 hexagon flange bolts are high-strength carbon steel fasteners equipped with an integrated flange under the head, providing a larger bearing surface that distributes load evenly. With a galvanized surface finish, these bolts offer moderate corrosion resistance and are ideal for applications requiring both secure tightening and improved clamping force. The combination of strength, ease of installation, and anti-loosening performance makes them a popular choice in automotive, mechanical, and structural assemblies.

Material Introduction & Production Process
These flange bolts are made of medium carbon steel, heat-treated to achieve the mechanical properties required for grade 8.8. The zinc plating provides a protective layer that delays rust and enhances the bolt’s appearance.
Production Steps:
Raw carbon steel bar selection and inspection
Cold heading and forging of hex head with flange
Thread rolling for precision threading
Heat treatment (quenching and tempering)
Zinc electroplating
Dimensional inspection and mechanical testing
This controlled process ensures structural integrity and tight manufacturing tolerances for safe and reliable performance.
Typical Applications & Industry Use
Grade 8.8 hexagon flange bolts are widely used in:
Automotive engines, chassis, and suspension systems
Agricultural equipment and trailers
Steel structures and metal frame assembly
Heavy machinery and power transmission systems
Railway components and rail fastening systems
The built-in flange eliminates the need for separate washers, offering time savings during assembly.
