Polished Metal Carriage Bolt, Shape : Round

Carriage bolts are a key fastening component in chain link fence systems, especially for securing fittings to posts. Here's a breakdown of their uses:

• Attaching Tension Bands to Terminal Posts Carriage bolts are used to fasten tension bands around end, corner, and gate posts. These bands hold the tension bar, which stretches the chain link fabric tight.
• Securing Brace Bands Brace bands connect rail ends to posts. Carriage bolts pass through the band and post to lock the rail in place, helping stabilize the fence structure.
• Mounting Gate Hardware Gate hinges, latches, and other accessories are often bolted to posts using carriage bolts. Their smooth, rounded heads prevent tampering and provide a clean finish.
• Connecting Rail Ends and Post Caps Carriage bolts are used to secure rail ends (where horizontal rails meet posts) and sometimes post caps, depending on the design.
• Used with Nuts and Washers Typically paired with hex nuts and washers for a secure, vibration-resistant hold.
• Material: Usually galvanized steel for rust resistance.
• Weather Resistance Made from galvanized or coated, they resist rust and corrosion, suitable for outdoor environments.
