Screws and Bolts
The screw is a metal fastener that has a tapered shank and helical thread. A screw is topped with either a slotted or crossed head and is driven into wood or another surface by rotation with a flat head or Phillips screwdriver. A flat head screwdriver is used with a slotted head screw while a Phillips head screwdriver is used with a crossed head screw.
The bolt is a strong fastening rod which is typically much larger in size than the screw. A bolt is usually threaded to receive a nut and is installed with the use of a wrench or ratchet. The bolt is an externally threaded fastener with the nut is an internally threaded product that used in connection with the bolt for the purpose of tightening or assembling two or more components.

Connectors
A connector can be defined as any device for connecting one object to another. The various connectors available at PlumbersStock.com range from copper tubing to rubber union connectors to a variety of crimp connectors. Along with connectors it is necessary to also have the required tools that correspond with the connector. For example, in order to use crimp connectors, a crimping tool is needed.
Tie Downs and Ropes
A tie down is a piece of hardware that uses industrial strength material in order to secure an object. The tie down uses a ratchet mechanism in order to tighten and loosen the material to hold the equipment or tool securely to a trailer or other location. Ropes can achieve the same effect by securing an item using a series of loops or knots. Tie downs are typically more user-friendly. When you buy hardware online you will need a way to secure it in your truck to get you from job to job.
Pipe Straps and Nail Plates
PlumbersStock offers plumber straps from various manufacturers, but Holdrite straps are probably the top seller. Nail plates are designed to protect pipes from nails and screws. It allows for a nail to be attached to a 2x4 behind sheetrock to keep from puncturing the pipe. Generally, nail plates are 2" wide and come in multiple lengths.
Paints and Lubrication
We offer a variety of paints to complete your task. Regular maintenance of machinery includes lubrication. If you wish for your machinery to last longer and continuously perform as well as the day you purchased it, you will need to keep up on regular maintenance of the unit. Items such as pond pumps or other industrial pumps will need to be lubricated regularly in order to function properly.
