hardware


Explanation:
In English, when you are dealing with "tornillería" as auxiliary parts that are included as part of the package with something that you purchased and are to be used in the assembly of that item, the term used is hardware. Say you have to assemble a machine and to do so you need two bolts, two washers and two nuts and these parts are included with the machine(normally included in a small bag or sometimes, not so small), this bag would be called the "hardware". If you are using it as a stand alone noun, then nuts and bolts would be the best bet.
