In regard to hardware

If there are a variety of types of hardware such as bolts, screws, washers and nuts in various dimensions. Should I use the plural form "hardwares" in this case?

The cost of hardware for this packing container is $27 and please add 10% of the amount to take account of omissions excluded in the item list

Thanks for your help.
I also want to know if there is mistake in the sample sentence I wrote, since I lack confidence in my writing in English.

There are no grammatical mistakes, but you should put a comma after $27 and a period at the end.
