Square head bolts are a type of fastener distinguished by their four-sided, angular heads, providing a robust surface for wrench or spanner grip. Their design allows for high torque application during tightening, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications where strong, reliable connections are required, such as in construction, industrial machinery, and structural assemblies. The flat sides of the square head also prevent rotation when placed against a flat surface, ensuring stability in fixed positions.
