Architectural Series Sex Bolts are used mainly to install hardware (kickplates, panic bars, door closers, hinges) to doors. When used in a hollow door they provide strength, security, and easy assembly from the other side. Architectural Series Sex Bolts have smooth truss heads with no drive. The knurled barrel keeps the sex bolt from spinning while the flat head screw is tightened from the other side. These parts are secure as there is no way to turn the sex bolt without a drive in the head.
Architectural Sex Bolts are available in a variety of materials and finishes. Materials include brass, steel, aluminum, 18-8, and Type 316 Stainless Steel. Available platings include chrome, brass, dark bronze, and zinc. The mating screw is a flat head with Phillips drive, plated to match the finish on the sex bolt, stainless sex bolts use stainless screws. Sold by the set, one female sex bolt, and one male flat head Phillips screw.
