Clutch Head Security Barrel Nuts & Sex Bolts

by Fastenright

A security sex bolt is a tamper-proof adaptation of the commonly known sex bolt, also known as a barrel nut, barrel bolt, Chicago screw, architectural bolts or post and screw.
This is a type of tamper-proof security fastener which has a barrel-shaped flange and protruding boss that is internally threaded. The boss sits within the components being fastened, and the flange provides the bearing surface.
The security sex bolts, including a male and female bolt, and the accompanying tamper-proof security machine screw sit flush on either side of the surfaces being fastened.
It is often chosen because of its low profile compared to other fasteners. It has a built-in security drive feature to aid in tightening the fastener.
They can also be referred to as a sleeve nut within the industry.
Can be manufactured in Steel or Stainless steel depending on individual customer requirements.
