Hex Bolt: A hex bolt is a threaded fastener with a hexagonal (six-sided) head. This design allows for easy tightening and loosening using a wrench or socket, providing a secure connection between two objects.
Zinc Plated: Zinc plating is a process used to protect metal surfaces from corrosion. In the case of a hex bolt, it means that the bolt's external surface is coated with a layer of zinc. This zinc coating helps to prevent rust and corrosion, making the bolt more durable, especially in outdoor or damp environments.
Blue: The term "blue" in the context of zinc plating often refers to a blue chromate conversion coating applied over the zinc layer. This coating not only provides additional corrosion resistance but also gives the bolt a bluish tint or color.
A zinc blue plated hex bolt is commonly used in construction, automotive, and other industries where corrosion resistance is essential. The blue color is a visual indicator of the zinc plating and does not affect the bolt's functionality but can help with quick identification.
