Rather than give it its own article, it is probably better to lump it here and give the article a broader name. The green valve in the game really mirrors these objects too and can probably share an article with them.) |

Bolts (also called screws)[1] are spinnable objects in Super Mario Galaxy. They are embedded into the terrain of industrialized galaxies, such as the Battlerock Galaxy and Buoy Base Galaxy. Performing a spin while on top of a bolt embeds it into the ground and triggers a nearby event.
There are varieties: a blue screw[2] with a Phillips head and a gold screw[3][4] (also called a golden bolt,[5] yellow screw,[6] and golden screw)[3] with a slotted head. Both bolts often appear together in the same galaxies. During "Heavy Metal Mecha-Bowser", blue and gold screws are imbedded into the body of Mecha-Bowser. Unscrewing them causes its body to fall apart. In Buoy Base Galaxy, a gold screw is attached to a Ball Beamer and disengages it when spun.
Bolts are very similar to valves.
