Product Information

Full details

The Timco Carriage Bolt and Hex Nut set is designed for professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, high-strength solution for securing timber or attaching ironmongery to wooden structures. These fasteners provide excellent clamping force and a clean, snag-resistant finish thanks to the domed head design, though users should note that the zinc finish is intended primarily for indoor or sheltered outdoor environments rather than high-corrosion coastal areas.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these bolts fully threaded?

Yes, this specific 100mm variant is fully threaded, which is standard for bolts of this length in this range.

Can these be used for metal-to-metal connections?

No, these are specifically designed for timber applications where the square shoulder can lock into the wood.

What is the head diameter?

The head diameter for this M12 bolt is 30.00mm.

Are the nuts included?

Yes, the product comes with the matching hex nuts included.

Can I use these near the ocean?

The zinc finish provides moderate protection, but for coastal environments, stainless steel fasteners are recommended to prevent rust.

What material are these made from?

They are manufactured from high-quality carbon steel.

Troubleshooting

Bolt spins when trying to tighten the nut

Ensure the square shoulder is properly seated in the timber. Use a mallet to firmly tap the head of the bolt to force the square shoulder into the wood.

Bolt is difficult to insert into the hole

Check that the pilot hole diameter is sufficient. If the square shoulder is preventing entry, use a chisel to slightly square off the entry point of the hole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Integrated square shoulder simplifies tightening process
  • Domed head offers a professional and safe finish
  • High-strength carbon steel construction
  • Complete set including necessary hex nuts

Cons

  • Zinc finish may require additional protection in harsh, wet outdoor environments
  • Requires a pilot hole to accommodate the square shoulder
  • Limited to timber-based applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install these bolts, first determine the correct length; ensure the 100mm length is sufficient to pass through your timber sections with enough remaining thread for the nut. Use a standard drill bit to create a hole, then insert the carriage bolt. Because these are made of carbon steel with a zinc finish, they are best kept dry. If using them in outdoor timber projects, verify that the wood treatment (such as copper-based preservatives) does not react negatively with zinc, and consider a stainless steel alternative if building in consistently damp or acidic environments. Store in a cool, dry place to prevent premature oxidation.
