FAQS on 5 16 x 1 2 carriage bolt

Q: What does the specification "5/16 x 1-2" mean for a carriage bolt?

A: The "5/16" indicates the bolt diameter (5/16 inch), and "1-2" refers to its variable length range (1 to 2 inches). These bolts feature a domed head and square neck to prevent rotation.

Q: Where would I use a 3/8 x 9 carriage bolt?

A: This 3/8-inch diameter, 9-inch-long bolt is ideal for heavy structural applications like timber framing or securing large wooden beams. Its extended length provides deep penetration for critical load-bearing joints.

Q: Is there a standard length for a 3/8 carriage bolt?

A: No, 3/8-inch diameter carriage bolts are sold in various lengths (e.g., 1.5", 2", 3"). Choose based on material thickness, ensuring the bolt extends beyond the nut by at least 1-2 threads.

Q: When should I choose a 3.5 inch carriage bolt?

A: Opt for 3.5-inch length when joining thicker materials exceeding 3 inches, such as deck posts or furniture legs. Ensure the shank fully penetrates the materials to allow proper nut tightening.

Q: How do I select the right carriage bolt size?

A: Match the bolt diameter (e.g., 5/16", 3/8") and length to your material thickness and load requirements. Always ensure the square neck fits snugly into pilot holes to prevent spinning during installation.
