The design of hexagonal flange screws plays an important role in industrial applications, especially where vibration resistance and stable fastening are required. Unique in that the head combines a hexagonal shape with a surrounding flange, this design not only provides the torque-transmitting capabilities of a traditional hexagonal head screw, but also adds an additional layer of functionality focused on preventing vibrational loosening.
One of the functions of the flange is to increase the contact area between the screw head and the mounting surface, thereby significantly increasing friction. By enlarging the contact surface, the flange effectively prevents the screws from loosening due to insufficient friction during vibration and continued use. This enhanced friction not only makes screw tightening stronger, but also reduces the need for maintenance, thereby improving work efficiency and safety.
In addition, the flange evenly distributes the forces exerted on the mounting surface. In contrast, traditional hex head screws may exert excessive force in some areas, causing localized stress concentrations that increase the risk of loosening. The design of the flange plate of hexagonal flange screws makes the force exerted during the installation process more uniform, reducing this risk and ensuring the stability and long-term reliability of the screws.
In practical applications, the flange plate of hexagonal flange screws also has the function of preventing the screw head from rotating. The flat design of the flange is parallel to the mounting surface, effectively preventing the screw head from rotating on its own due to vibration or shock. This design not only maintains the tightened state of the screws, but also avoids possible misoperation or loosening during the tightening process. By evenly distributing pressure, hexagon flange screws ensure a tight fit between the screw head and flange plate, further enhancing the screw's vibration resistance and safety. Not only does this make hex flange screws the preferred choice in high-vibration environments, it also provides an ideal solution for a variety of applications that require stable fastening and reliability.
