Round hexagon screw and method for its production

摘要

The invention concerns an outer hexagon round screw and a method for production of the screw. The screw cap is formed here essentially in the kind of a Torx head, with an outer hexagon round contour (5) and a flange (4) having a slope (4.1) reaching in the direction of the outer hexagon round contour (5) under an angle (alpha) thereby assuring a force engagement with a tool. The slope (4.1) of the flange (4) follows immediately to the outer hexagon round contour (5) such that the overall height (k) of the head (3) is substantially decreased, wherein at the same time the height (t1) of the outer hexagon round contour (5) assures a reliable force engagement. The production of the flange (4) and of the outer hexagon round contour (5) is performed either by scraping with a scraping tool or by head flattening or upset compressing or compression molding, wherein additionally a socket is formed in the head region.
