DIN603 Steel Carriage Bolt High Tensile

Carriage bolts, are a type of fastener specifically designed for woodworking applications. They are commonly used to securely attach metal components to wooden structures. The unique design and features of carriage bolts make them ideal for this purpose.

One notable characteristic of carriage bolts is their shallow domed head. This head shape provides a smooth and finished appearance when installed flush with the surface of the wood. It also helps distribute the load evenly across the bolt's surface, reducing stress concentration points that could weaken the joint over time.

In terms of head shape, carriage bolts come in various options such as square, circular, or hexagonal heads. Each shape offers its own advantages depending on the specific application requirements. Square-headed carriage bolts provide more grip and prevent rotation when tightened into place using a wrench or pliers. Circular-headed ones offer a sleeker look while still providing ample strength for secure fastening. Hexagonal-headed carriage bolts allow for easy installation with standard tools like sockets or wrenches.

There are several types of bolts,including hex bolt, flange bolt, L anchor bolt.  A hex bolt, also known as a hex head bolt or hexagonal bolt, is a type of fastener with a hexagonal head and a threaded shaft. It is commonly used in construction, machinery, and automotive industries to secure two or more objects together.A flange bolt is a type of bolt that is used to fasten two flanges together. Flange bolts come in various sizes and lengths to suit different applications and are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and water treatment.
