A machine bolt is a low or medium carbon steel, externally threaded mechanical device with machine thread pitch and a 1/4 inch in diameter or larger, with a trimmed hex head or square head and typically hot-dipped galvanized coating. A machine bolt does not have a washer face on its bearing surface as does a hex cap screw, nor does it have a mechanical point. Its body tolerances are not as close as those of a hex cap screw. Machine bolts are designed to be used in highly corrosive environments (coastal locales and heavily polluted atmospheres).
