Design and Functionality

Forgefix Carriage Bolts, also referred to as Cup Square Hex Bolts, feature a distinctive domed or countersunk head and are fully threaded to a length of 100mm. A key design element is the square section located underneath the cup, which prevents the bolt from rotating during installation. This unique feature provides an efficient and secure fastening solution, particularly in timber construction.

These bolts conform to the DIN 603 and DIN 934 standards, assuring quality and reliability. Additionally, they come complete with a hex nut, making them easy to use for fastening applications.

Applications

The primary application of Forgefix Carriage Bolts is fastening timber to timber. Their design allows them to be extensively used in house building and numerous decking applications, ensuring structural stability in any project. The square section under the head grips firmly into the wood, thereby eliminating any risk of rotation, which is particularly beneficial when tightening the nut. This ensures reliable connections in both light and heavy-duty applications.

Furthermore, a variant of the carriage bolt, known as the rib neck carriage bolt, incorporates several longitudinal ribs that grip into metal parts rather than wood. This adaptability makes the Forgefix Carriage Bolts suitable for various fastening needs beyond just timber connections.
