Importance of Fasteners
• They simplify the manufacture of
machines and structures.
• They reduce the need for large one piece
parts.
• It is normally easier to make less complex
components and fasten them together
Importance cont.
• They simplify repair of structures and
equipment.
• Individual component parts can simply and
quickly be separated for inspection, repair,
or replacement.
They Provide Safety
• Use of fasteners tends to assure that once
an assembly is fastened together it will
hold together.
• They can also be installed to provide
additional support or they be a weak links.
(Ex. Shear pins, drive shafts, & breakaway
plowshares)
B. General types of
Fasteners
• Bolts, nuts, and
washers
• Screws
• Keys
• Studs
• Pins
• Rings
• Rivets
• Adhesives
• Nails
• etc.
Specific Types and uses of
fasteners
• Bolts: are threaded lengths of steel rod
with heads on one end.
• They are used with a nut at the other end
and sometimes with a washer as well.
American Standard Bolts
Hexagon or Square Head
• Most have a hexagonal head (6-sided). Older
square bolts have a 4- sided head.
• Without a nut they are called cap screws and
are screwed into threaded holes.
• Bolts are selected by strength rating,
chemical or heat compatibility.
Carriage Bolts
• Most have a round head with a square
neck, under the head.
• Carriage bolts are used to fasten wood
parts where a smooth finish is required.

lie flush with the surfaces of the part.
Nuts:
• Are flat, usually hexagonal shaped steel
pieces with internally cut threads.
Castellated & Slotted nuts
• A. These are used when a cotter pin is
placed through a hole in the bolt to secure
the nit so it cannot come loose.
• Ex: Wheel bearing spindles
Nuts
Self Locking nuts
• A. Once tightened these nuts stay firmly in
place.
• B. They are commonly known as “elastic”
or plastic insert nuts.
Washers
• A. Plain washers: (flat washers) are steel
disks with a hole in the center.
• B. They are used to reduce the stress
under the bolt or nut.
• C. They spread a clamping force from the
bolt over a larger area to span slots and
oversize holes in wood
Washers
Lock Washers
• A. Helical spring washers are made of
tough spring steel.
• B. Normally installed under the nut or bolt.
• C. They are used to prevent rotation of the
nut.
Nails
• Nails are steel rods with a head on one
end and usually pointed at the other end.
• They are used primarily to join wood
together.
Nail size:
• Generally given in terms of “penny”
• “d” indicates the penny size
• Nails are sold by the pound at most
hardware stores.
