T-bolt with square neck | A2 | DIN 186
T-head bolt with square neck in stainless steel A2 is intended for mechanical fastening in structures where the bolt head and neck are used for guidance and anti-rotation. The product complies with DIN 186 and is used where a T-shaped head profile in combination with a square neck is required. Material class A2 provides corrosion resistance for many outdoor environments and general industrial applications.
T-bolt is also a term used alongside search terms such as hammer-head bolt and T-head screw. When choosing a product, DIN 186 is important for distinguishing the design from other types of T-bolts and track bolts.
AREA OF APPLICATION
The product is used in machine construction, assembly, steel structures, and other mechanical fastenings. It is intended for applications where the T-head is used for fastening or guidance and the square neck helps prevent rotation during assembly and tightening.
Stainless A2 is suitable where corrosion resistance is required in normal outdoor and industrial environments without particularly high chloride exposure.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)
What is a T-bolt according to DIN 186?
DIN 186 refers to T-bolts with a square neck. The design consists of a T-shaped head and a square neck that can be used for guidance and to prevent the bolt from rotating during tightening.
Are T-bolt and hammer-head bolt the same thing?
Hammer-head bolt is used as an alternative term for certain types of T-bolts. Since different designs exist, the standard should be checked. For this product, DIN 186 is the specified standard.
What does stainless A2 mean?
A2 is a material class for stainless steel with good corrosion resistance in many normal indoor and outdoor environments. For environments with high chloride exposure or more demanding marine conditions, a more corrosion-resistant material class, such as A4, is normally used.
Why does the DIN 186 bolt have a square neck?
The square neck is designed to provide guidance and prevent rotation when the bolt is mounted in a matching structure. It facilitates tightening when the bolt head cannot or should not be held with tools.
How do I choose the right T-bolt?
First, check that the construction is intended for DIN 186 and that the design of the head and square neck fits the fastening. Then, choose the correct thread and length based on the structure and the specific joint.
