These Forgefix Carriage Bolts are meticulously designed for reliable timber-to-timber joining, making them an essential component in construction and DIY projects alike. Known also as Cup Square Hex Bolts, these bolts feature a square neck that grips securely into the wood, effectively preventing rotation when the hex nut is tightened.

Design and Specifications

- These carriage bolts come with a domed or countersunk head, ensuring a flush fit with the surface of the wood.

Applications

Primarily used for fastening timber to timber, these bolts excel in timber joist construction, making them suitable for house building and a multitude of decking projects. Their robust design not only supports structural integrity but also streamlines assembly processes in woodworking tasks.

Additional Features

Crafted with a zinc plating, these carriage bolts are engineered to resist corrosion, significantly extending their lifespan. The zinc coating acts as a protective barrier that prevents oxidation of the metal beneath. Should this barrier sustain any damage, the zinc will function as a sacrificial anode, mitigating corrosion effectively. The formation of zinc oxide creates a protective layer that does not compromise the structural integrity of the substrate, unlike iron oxide.

Enhanced Grip

In addition to the square neck, some variants of the carriage bolt include a rib neck design, featuring longitudinal ribs that provide enhanced grip when fixing into metal parts. This variation ensures versatility and adaptability across different construction materials, making them a trusted choice for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.
