Auto Bolt Announces New Manufacturing Capability: Six-Lobe Fasteners


Cleveland, Ohio - Auto Bolt is excited to announce the new capability of manufacturing six-lobe fasteners, both internal-drive and external-drive.

Auto Bolt's initial production of the six-lobe fastener was driven by a customer request. The engineering team at Auto Bolt researched the requirements to make the product on its existing cold-heading equipment, and successfully produced its first six-lobe product within six weeks of the acceptance of the order. Auto Bolt has produced several types of six lobe fasteners, including a six lobe shoulder bolt and a six lobe flat screw with partial thread.

Six-lobe fasteners have many technical advantages over other hollow-head drive screws, such as optimum force transmission resulting in diminished tool wear, no requirement of axial pressure, and smaller space requirements.

Auto Bolt is a cold-forming manufacturer of bolts, rivets and pins, specializing in longer lengths and mid-to-heavy diameters. The company is certified to ISO 9001:2000 and has been doing business since 1948 in the same downtown Cleveland, Ohio location.
