Flanged Hexagon Bolts
A flanged bolt is a hexagon headed bolt or screw incorporating a flange beneath the head, negating the need for a seperate washer. Flange bolts are a more attractive alternative to the standard head bolt or screw. The flange allows the load to be spread over a larger surface area compared to a standard head and also offers protection for the bolted component where the driving tool may otherwise scratch it's surface.
