FAQ

What hex key fits these screws?
The hex key (Allen wrench) size is listed in the specifications for each size on this page.

How do I stop stainless threads from galling?
Stainless threads can seize (gall) when tightened fast or under heavy load. Put anti-seize on the threads, tighten slowly at low speed, keep the threads clean and don't overtighten.

What do USS coarse and SAE fine thread mean?
USS (UNC) coarse thread has fewer threads per inch and is the general purpose standard; it goes together fast and is less likely to cross thread. SAE (UNF) fine thread has more threads per inch for finer adjustment and better hold under vibration. The nut must match the thread.
