Rivets are permanent fasteners that join materials by means of a mechanical interlock. They consist of a cylindrical shaft with a head at one end and are installed by deforming the unheaded end after insertion. Rivets are commonly used in structural applications such as bridges and aircraft, where a high level of strength is critical. There are different types of rivets, including solid rivets, blind rivets, and tubular rivets. Blind rivets, also known as pop rivets, can be installed from one side of the workpiece, making them ideal for applications where access to both sides is limited.

- Ease of Use The hex head design provides good torque ability, making it easy to tighten or loosen the bolts manually or with power tools. This ease of use is particularly beneficial in environments where speed is essential.

Another significant advantage of hex head drilling screws is their compatibility with various materials. These screws can effectively secure wood, metal, and even certain plastics. This versatility makes them an essential component in both residential and commercial construction. Whether framing a new home or assembling industrial equipment, hex head drilling screws provide a reliable fastening solution.
