Swing bolts

To make Swing bolts work better, they go through different surface treatments. These include zinc plating, black oxide coating, or PTFE lubrication.

Zinc plating is great for bolts used outside or in marine settings. It creates a layer that stops rust. Black oxide coating makes the bolts more resistant to wear and cuts down on friction. Bolts with PTFE coating can lubricate themselves. So, if you're using them in systems that run fast or get really hot, you don't have to maintain them as often.

For places where everything needs to be super clean, like in medical devices, there are electro-polished bolts. These surface treatments don't just make the bolts last longer. They also make sure the bolts work smoothly, no matter what the environment is like.

Product details

Swing bolts come in lots of sizes. They’ve got diameters as small as M6 all the way up to M30, and lengths between 20mm and 300mm. That way, you can grab whatever size matches the weight you’re dealing with. The threads are either fine or coarse, and you can pick metric or imperial measurements.

You can tweak them too – like choosing hex heads or flanged heads, picking left-handed or right-handed threads, and some even come with washers already attached. Makers give you CAD-ready specs, so it’s easy to plug them into your digital plans.

Q&A

Q: Are Swing bolts compatible with non-standard machinery dimensions?

A: The bolt come in all sorts of sizes – shaft lengths, thread types, and diameters (like M10 to M24) – so they’ll fit different equipment setups. They can usually adjust up to 15mm, which helps with tweaking alignment or fitting custom designs. Just share your machine specs with our team, and we’ll either recommend the right bolts or make custom ones that slot in perfectly and hold up under the load.
