If you've ever struggled to find the perfect fastener for joining wood to metal, you're not alone. As someone who's spent years in the fastener industry, I can tell you that selecting the right Hanger Bolt makes all the difference between a wobbly mess and a rock-solid connection.
At HAIYAN BOLT, we've helped thousands of professionals and DIYers solve their fastening challenges. Let me walk you through how to pick the ideal Hanger Bolt for your specific needs.
Unlike regular bolts, a Hanger Bolt features two different threaded ends:
One end has wood screw threads (for gripping into timber)
The opposite end has machine threads (for attaching nuts or metal components)
This unique design solves a common pain point: securely fastening metal parts to wood without using separate adapters. Whether you're building furniture, installing stair railings, or assembling machinery, using the wrong Hanger Bolt can lead to:
✖ Stripped threads
✖ Loose connections
✖ Premature corrosion
We recommend matching:
Wood Thickness | Recommended Hanger Bolt |
---|---|
Under 1" (25mm) | #8-1/4"20 x 1.5"-3" |
1"-2" (25-50mm) | #10-5/16"18 x 2"-4" |
Over 2" (50mm) | #12-3/8"16 x 3"-6" |
Pro Tip: For structural applications, always choose one size larger than you think you need.
For Indoor Use:
Zinc-plated steel (most economical)
Brass (for decorative applications)
For Outdoor/Marine Use:
304 Stainless Steel (standard corrosion resistance)
316 Stainless Steel (maximum saltwater resistance)
Hot-dip galvanized (heavy-duty protection)
At HAIYAN BOLT, our 316 stainless steel Hanger Bolts are customer favorites for coastal construction projects.
While Hanger Bolts are incredibly versatile, they're not always the perfect solution. Consider these alternatives when:
You need flush mounting → Use carriage bolts
Working with thin materials → Opt for sex bolts
Frequent disassembly required → Choose threaded inserts
