An Introduction to Shoulder Screws

Shoulder Screws

What is a Shoulder Screw?

Shoulder screws are also known as shoulder bolts and stripper bolts. Their sizes are normally
described by the shoulder diameter x shoulder length. Once installed, the shoulder section, which
is slightly larger in diameter to the threaded section, can act as a shaft for rotating bearings to
create simple cam followers, pivot points, or for pulley’s and gears.

Manufactured in house, not only do we have large volumes of shoulder screws in stock in a wide
variety of styles, materials, and sizes, we are also able to manufacture specials to your bespoke
requirements with very quick turnaround times.
