Picture this: Your deck wobbles dangerously after just one season. Your trailer hitch rattles like a jar of marbles. That custom furniture project starts separating at the joints. Why? 92% of structural failures trace back to substandard fasteners. Using weak carriage bolts costs contractors $1.2 billion annually in rework. Don't become another statistic!
🔒 Your entire project's safety depends on a component as small as 3/8 inch. Yet 65% of builders admit they can't visually distinguish quality carriage bolts. That gamble ends today. Let's bolt down the truth!

Technical Advantages: Why Our Carriage Bolts Dominate
Why trust your critical joints to ordinary bolts? Our 3/8 x 4 inch carriage bolts feature military-grade enhancements:
Galvanized coating thickness: 45 microns vs industry standard 20 microns
Survives 1,000+ hours in salt spray testing (ASTM B117)
Heat-treated to Rockwell C35 hardness. Precision-rolled threads prevent cross-threading. Square necks bite into wood to prevent rotation during tightening. That's engineering peace of mind!
Head-to-Head: Why Our 3/8" Bolts Outperform
We put 7 leading brands through torture tests. See how we dominate:
Feature | Our Bolts | Brand X | Big-Box Store |
---|---|---|---|
Shear Strength (lbs) | 4,850 | 3,200 | 2,700 |
Corrosion Resistance | HDG Class 55 | Electroplated | Basic Zinc |
Square Neck Height | 0.225" | 0.180" | 0.150" |
Warranty | Lifetime | 1 year | None |
Notice those numbers? Competitors cut corners where it counts. Our thicker galvanized coating on 3/8 x 3.5 carriage bolts protects against weather extremes. Don't pay for premium and get peasant quality!

FAQS on 6 carriage bolts
Q: What are the standard dimensions of 6 carriage bolts?
A: Carriage bolts typically feature a rounded head with a square neck under it to prevent rotation during tightening. A set of 6 carriage bolts usually shares identical diameter and thread pitch, such as 3/8 inch shank with coarse threading. The length varies based on application needs but common options include 3.5-inch or 4-inch versions.
Q: What projects suit 3/8 x 4 inch carriage bolts?
A: These 4-inch bolts are ideal for thick material joining where extra length is needed for securing nuts. They excel in outdoor decking, heavy furniture assembly, or trailer flooring applications requiring substantial penetration. The square neck provides self-locking capability in wood or soft metals.
Q: How do 3/8 x 3.5 inch carriage bolts differ from longer versions?
A: 3.5-inch bolts offer mid-range penetration for projects like furniture legs, gate hinges, or garden equipment where 4-inch would be excessive. They share the same 3/8-inch diameter as longer bolts but provide optimized grip range for medium-thickness materials. This length avoids unnecessary protrusion while maintaining strength.
Q: Why choose 3/8 x 3.5 galvanized carriage bolts?
A: Galvanization adds zinc coating for superior rust resistance in wet or outdoor environments. These bolts withstand exposure in marine hardware, agricultural equipment, and exterior wood structures where corrosion occurs. The protection extends service life 5-10 times over uncoated steel alternatives.
Q: Can carriage bolt sizes be mixed in a single project?
A: Yes, combining lengths like 3.5-inch and 4-inch versions creates tiered security in multi-layered assemblies. Use longer bolts for primary structural joints and shorter ones for reinforcement points. Ensure all share matching diameter (e.g., 3/8-inch) to maintain consistent torque specifications and nut compatibility.
