When your business is in need of collar bolts, you will need to locate dependable collar bolt manufacturers and suppliers. You will need to use both a supplier and manufacturer when your business requires custom collar bolts for your particular business needs. Most suppliers do not carry specialty collar bolts, so you will need depend on the manufacturer to fulfill your orders.

Collar bolt suppliers are eager to get and keep your business. Many companies do business the old-fashioned way, face-to-face. When you are setting up accounts and ordering collar fasteners online, keep the following at the front of your mind:

1. Ask manufacturers to send you a sample of the specialty collar bolts you need before placing a large order.

2. Consider the price of shipping when you calculate your overall cost, because shipping heavy items can be pricey.

3. Find out how the company handles product returns. Many companies charge a restocking fee.



Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Order directly from the manufacturer when you require a specialty collar fastener


There may be times when you need a specific bolt collar or collar bolt design. When you have exact specifications, you need to work with collar bolt manufacturers that are willing to customize your order. Look for a manufacturer that has the capabilities to make bolts to your specific needs and will allow you to order as few or many items that you need.

I recommend: USA Industries has the capability to design collar bolts to your exact specifications, providing tolerances to +/- 0 mils. Specialty Screw offers 24 hour response time to specialty design requests and has a phenomenal track record for shipping orders on time.

Purchase standard collar bolts from a distributor that deals in large volume


Standard collar bolts can be purchased from distributors that offer discounts for large purchases. Some distributors do not require a minimum order to receive a discounted price, while others offer discounted prices on small orders for their customers with accounts.

I recommend: Alcoa Fasteners has one of the largest inventories of collared bolts. Their bolts are made from a variety of materials such as aluminum, monel, steel, titanium and several other metals. WB Parts has an extensive catalog with the focus being pin bolts.

Buy a plastic collared bolt


Plastic collared bolts are ideal when you need a bolt that is light weight, non-corrosive, non-magnetic and non-heat conducting. Plastic bolt collars are ideal for aerospace, marine, electrical and general uses.

I recommend: Nyl Tite offers rolled collar bolts that lock and seal faster than bolts made from traditional materials. Find a variety of bolts and collars that will be beneficial for your business needs. The Fastener Warehouse has a wide variety of standard collar bolts.
