Ball Head Screws

Ball head screws are specialized fasteners that feature a rounded or spherical head instead of the traditional flat or hex head. This unique design allows for a certain degree of pivoting or angling, making them ideal for applications where alignment flexibility is needed.

Key Characteristics:

  • Spherical or dome-shaped head: Often mates with a socket or concave surface to allow articulation.
  • Used in precision assemblies: Common in camera mounts, robotic joints, automotive parts, and RC vehicles.
  • Adjustable connection: Allows for movement or rotation, especially in ball-and-socket mechanisms.

Common Variants:

  • Ball stud screws: Often used in gas springs or struts to connect moving components.
  • Ball joint screws: Used in mechanical linkages requiring pivot movement.
