Hex head sealing screws come with a rubber O ring pre installed in a precision machined groove under the hex head. When tightened with a wrench the hex head design allows for high torque application ensuring the O ring compresses fully against the mating surface to create a complete watertight seal.
These self sealing bolts are ideal for underground electrical enclosures, water treatment facilities, marine equipment, automotive exterior lighting, and industrial junction boxes that require IP68 rated protection against prolonged water immersion.
The hex head design provides excellent grip for power tools and wrenches making installation quick and secure. No separate sealing washer or liquid sealant is needed which reduces assembly time and eliminates mess.
Available in stainless steel 304 for maximum corrosion resistance or galvanized carbon steel for cost effective outdoor use. O ring materials include NBR for general purpose, silicone for wide temperature range, and Viton for chemical resistance.
Standard metric thread sizes M4 M5 M6 with custom lengths available upon request. Bulk orders welcome with factory direct pricing.
Our company is an ISO 9001 certified fastener manufacturer with over 10 years of export experience. Every batch undergoes 100% thread gauging and O ring integrity inspection before shipping.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q What is the sealing principle of hex head sealing screws?
They feature a rubber O-ring fitted into an under-head groove. When tightened, the O-ring compresses fully against the flat mounting surface to form an impermeable IP68 waterproof barrier.
Q Which O-ring material should I select for my application?
NBR is optimal for general waterproof use, Silicone is best suited for wide temperature resistance, and Viton provides high chemical and oil corrosion defense.
Q Are separate washers or liquid thread sealants required?
No. The integrated O-ring eliminates the requirement for additional sealing washers or liquid sealants, speeding up installation and preventing chemical contamination.
Q Can these fasteners be customized in length and thread dimensions?
Yes, beyond standard metric sizes like M4, M5, and M6 (10mm to 50mm length), we offer custom sizing, thread pitch, and surface treatment options for OEM orders.
Q How is the product quality assured before shipment?
As an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer, each production batch undergoes 100% thread gauge verification and precision O-ring integrity inspections prior to export.
