Countersunk bolts with flat head and hex socket drive

High Quality Countersunk Bolts Manufacturer in India

Jade Alloys is a countersunk bolts manufacturer and supplier in India, making bolts that are built to hide their heads. The flat top and cone-shaped underside match the angle of a countersunk hole, so the bolt pulls down until the head sits flush with or just below the surface. This leaves nothing to snag or catch. We forge this fastener with a hex socket in the head, so it can be driven with an Allen key even in a tight recess. It suits everything from precision machinery and panels to structural and architectural work. 

We match the grade to the job. For everyday assembly we use carbon steel class 8.8 or stainless steel 304 and 316. For stronger joints we move up to alloy steel in class 10.9 and 12.9. For seawater, acids or high heat we forge to order in Duplex and Super Duplex, Inconel, Hastelloy and Monel. These bolts are made to ASTM F568, F593, ISO 3506-1 and BS EN standards. The same part is also sold as a flat head socket cap bolt, flat head hex socket bolt or CSK bolt. Every order ships from Mumbai with EN 10204 3.1 certification to the Gulf, Southeast Asia and Europe. 

What is a Countersunk Bolt

A countersunk bolt, also written as CSK bolt or flat head socket cap screw, is a headed fastener whose head is a shallow cone with a flat top. The angled underside of the head bears against the matching chamfer of a countersunk hole, which centres the bolt and lets the head finish level with the material. Most countersunk bolts carry an internal hex socket rather than an external head, so they are driven with an Allen key and leave a clean, low-profile, tamper-resistant face. They are made to both metric and imperial dimensions with UNC, UNF, UN and ISO metric threads, which is why they are a default choice wherever clearance, appearance or a snag-free surface matters.

FAQs – Countersunk Bolt

What is a countersunk bolt used for?

A countersunk bolt is used where the head must sit flush with or below the surface, leaving a smooth, snag-free finish. The conical head seats into a matching countersunk hole, so it is common on machinery, panels, railings and architectural work.

What is the difference between countersink and countersunk?

A countersink is the conical recess machined into the material; countersunk describes the bolt whose cone-shaped head is made to seat into that recess so it finishes flush.

How is a countersunk bolt driven?

Most countersunk bolts have an internal hex (Allen) socket in the flat head and are tightened with an Allen key, which allows access in tight or recessed positions.

What sizes do countersunk bolts come in?

Jade Alloys manufactures countersunk bolts from M3 to M72 metric and 1/4" to 3" imperial, in classes 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9, with custom sizes to drawing.

Which countersunk bolt material is best for corrosion resistance?

Stainless steel 316 / 316L, Duplex and hot-dip galvanized countersunk bolts give the best corrosion resistance for marine, outdoor and chemical service.
