Since 1962, Cold Headers has supplied precision 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Shoulder Screws (Stripper Bolts) to OEM manufacturers, industrial distributors, maintenance professionals, machine builders, and engineering teams throughout North America.
18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Shoulder Screws, commonly referred to as stripper bolts, are designed for applications requiring a precision shoulder that serves as a bearing surface, pivot, guide, spacer, stop, or locating feature. Unlike standard socket head cap screws, the accurately sized shoulder supports controlled movement while the threaded portion secures the assembly. The corrosion resistance of 18-8 stainless steel makes these fasteners well suited for equipment exposed to moisture, washdown environments, and general industrial service.
Typical applications include tooling, fixtures, automation equipment, machine building, food processing equipment, packaging machinery, conveyors, guide mechanisms, pivots, material handling systems, OEM manufacturing, and industrial maintenance where corrosion resistance and precision movement are important.
Cold Headers stocks a wide range of 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Shoulder Screws (Stripper Bolts) in numerous shoulder diameters and shoulder lengths for OEM production, replacement maintenance, and industrial applications.
