How to heat treat steel fasteners
Some of the physical properties fasteners can be altered through thermal treatment after initial formation. In particular, steel alloys are heat treated routinely to increase their strength, hardness and other such properties.
Fundamentals of bolts and screws
Since the terms "bolt" and "screw" were in use before the advent of easily produced helix fasteners, they are often synonymous. However, several standards bodies have attempted to differentiate the terms, with many concluding that it is not the devices themselves which are fundamentally different.
