Mild Steel Wood Bolts Screw, Color : Black All

A wood bolt—commonly known as a lag bolt or lag screw—is a heavy-duty fastener designed for joining wood to wood or wood to metal/concrete in high-load applications. Here 's how it 's used: 🔩 Primary Uses of Wood Bolts (Lag Bolts): 1. Structural Wood Connections Join beams, posts, and joists in timber framing or deck building. Often used where a strong, load-bearing connection is required. 2. Securing Wood to Other Materials Attach wooden structures (like fences, decks, or framing) to: Concrete or masonry (with anchors) Steel brackets or plates 3. Heavy-Duty Furniture and Fixtures Used in solid wood furniture for secure joints (e.g., bed frames, benches). Often paired with washers to distribute the load. 4. Outdoor and Landscaping Projects Retaining walls, pergolas, garden structures, and playground equipment. Preferred for outdoor use when made of galvanized or stainless steel. 🛠️ How They Work: Wood bolts have thick, coarse threads that grip wood tightly. Typically installed with a wrench (hex or square head). Pilot holes are often drilled to prevent wood splitting. 🧱 Materials & Coatings: Galvanized Steel: For rust resistance outdoors. Stainless Steel: For high corrosion resistance (marine or damp environments). Black Oxide or Zinc Coating: For indoor use or aesthetic purposes. ✅ Advantages: High load capacity. Long-lasting hold in structural wood. Easy to remove or replace.
