English translation:hex socket bolt
Explanation:
I think "hex(agon) socket head bolt" is also OK, but I prefer the shorter one.

Bolts are with/without a cap. Then the socket is simply on the top of a bolt or on a cap. In this sense, "hex socket bolt" is better than "hex socket head bolt" or "hex socket cap bolt".

Hex head bolt


Explanation:
Abbreviation is usually used, hence 'hex'. 'hex screw' for smaller fixings. if you are in a conversation you'll just say 'hex head' as 'hex nut' does not exist.
