Custom Fasteners

- Bushings
- Rivets
To accommodate different applications, we make custom fasteners from a wide range of materials:
- Aluminum
- Brass
- Bronze
- Stainless steel

Custom Bolts
Bolts are simple components essential for many industrial and construction applications. Unlike standard bolts, custom bolts are designed to hold machinery, structures, and equipment together amid challenging operating conditions. Three common manufacturing methods we use to produce custom bolts are:
- Machining
- Cold heading
- Heat treatment
At Chicago Nut & Bolt, we use state-of-the-art machining and fabrication techniques to manufacture custom bolts for your unique needs. Some customization options we offer to meet specific requirements include:
- Material selection
- Length and diameter

Custom Nuts
In manufacturing applications, nuts and bolts are commonly used together to fasten various assemblies. A nut is a small metal object with internal threads that match a bolt. Custom nuts ensure the secure, stable, and sturdy connection of machine and equipment components.
The various types of custom nuts we manufacture include:
- Coupling nuts
- Flange nuts
- Hex nuts
- Lock nuts
- Slotted nuts
- Square nuts
- Wheel nuts
Since the different physical and chemical characteristics of materials for nuts can affect performance, it’s essential to choose the material best suited for your intended application. The most common materials for custom nuts are steel, stainless steel, and brass.
Key considerations when specifying custom nuts for your project include:
- Application
- Material
- Thread type
- Size
- Strength
Custom Screws
Screws are a general fastener category for devices made to bore into a material or to pair with a connecting female component. Custom screws often feature a threaded rod and a head with a cutout, where a tool can be inserted to quickly and efficiently rotate the screw into the material for a secure connection.
Types of custom screws include:
- Button socket cap screws
- Concrete screws
- Deck screws
- Flat head socket cap screws
- Hex cap screws
- Low head socket cap screws
- Machine screws
- Self-drilling screws
- Self-tapping screws
- Sheet metal screws
- Sems screws
- Set screws
- Shoulder socket screws
- Socket cap screws
- Tapping screws
- Thread cutting screws
