Any chance to go sailing with you the next time I visit Germany, which is about every 4 years or so? In return I could take you out into the Gulf when you would visit Fl.......

1. a screw with it´s head to be equal with the surface if screwed in
2. a screw with a head like a lense,
2a. What are screws called having heads with hexagonal openings to take up the tool
3. a rived fixed by pulling out a metal rod with a special gripper,
3a. what is the name of the tool
4. kind of rived to be used at spaces You don´t have access to from behind.
5. a rived with windings operated with the tool shown on the second picture
6. a nut with integrated plasticrings to secure it against unintentionally loosing

thank You folks in advance

I will try and answer your question - but an aside on this languauge issue, my first thought was why not just google the image and see one that matches, then I realized if you do not know what to put into google to get started, anyway my wife speaks several languages and my daughter even more, my son is trying to become multilingual, and I well I am an American, so back to your question
a. and b are bolts, their head makes the difference in the name a is a socket cap screw and b is a machine screw (yes I know I said they are bolts and then called them screws - welcome to the English language ) there is a web site that may help you as a reference McMaster Car to see examples scroll down the right side to fastening and sealing and click on bolts.
c is a pop rivet ( assume you know that the tool in the next picture is what you use it with) and the tool is called a pop rivet gun or tool (see McMaster Car and click on rivet tools page 3216)
d is an expanding wall hanger - I am not sure if there is a better trade name than that
e - I am not sure what it is from your description - my pop rivet gun does not work with anything that looks like that - maybe Kevin or Jack Sparrow have some idea - otherwise it looks like a Rivet Nut Insert (see McMaster Car and click on rivet tools page 3215)
f - is a nut, with the top part it becomes a nylon lock nut

Thanks Tangentair, it´s helping me further. On the picture 2 there is a tool functioning very like a poprivetgun. You have certain insert s for different sizes of windings. Nr. 5 is used with it.

O.k. I would not know the name of that machine in German. Is that something you need for sailing?

Hi Hans,
nicht für´s Segeln aber ev. um eine Mod. zu beschreiben . Thanks Tangentair I can identify everything now, On the pages of McMasterCarr this tool is called a rivetnut installation tool.
