Vierkantschrauben

Vorteile
Square-head bolts offer several advantages. They provide increased grip due to the larger surface area of the square head, which reduces slippage during tightening, making them particularly useful in tight spaces. They are easier to align with wrenches or pliers, making installation more straightforward. These bolts are durable and suitable for high-strength applications, providing reliable performance under heavy loads. The simple design of the square head can also reduce manufacturing costs, and they offer good corrosion resistance when made from stainless or galvanized steel.

Nachteile
However, square-head bolts are less common than hex-head bolts, which makes specific sizes or materials harder to find. They may also be less compatible with modern tools, as fewer tools are designed explicitly for square heads, requiring more specialized tools. The industrial or vintage appearance of square-head bolts may not fit the aesthetic requirements of modern applications. Installing them can be more challenging when socket wrenches or power tools are needed, as hex-head bolts are more compatible with these tools.

Higher Cost: 316L stainless steel is more expensive than carbon steel or other materials.
Verarbeitungsschwierigkeiten: Aufgrund der hohen Festigkeit sind möglicherweise spezielle Werkzeuge und Techniken zum Schneiden und Formen erforderlich.
