All strength properties of bolts and capscrews are the same. Capscrews are typically used in tapped holes and bolts are typically assembled with a nut. Cardinal Fastener manufactures its bolts to meet most of the dimensional specifications of capscrews therefore allowing a Cardinal Fastener bolt to be subsitituted for a capscrew.
