Hex head self-tapping bolts are used in a wide array of industries, including automotive, aerospace, construction, and home improvement. Here are some common applications

1. Enhanced Stability One of the primary advantages of wedge bolts is the stability they provide to the formwork. During the concrete pouring process, the weight and pressure from the liquid concrete can cause formwork to shift or collapse if not adequately secured. Wedge bolts hold the forms in place, ensuring that they do not bow or fail under stress.

Another advantage is the ease of installation. Standard wedge bolts can often be installed without the need for specialized tools, allowing for quicker assembly and reducing labor costs. This makes them an attractive option for construction projects that demand efficient time management.
