Hanger Bolt

A hanger bolt, also known as a dowel screw or hanger screw, is a unique type of fastener that combines the features of both a screw and a bolt. It has threading on both ends but with different characteristics: Wood Thread: One end of the hanger bolt has wood threading, similar to that of a standard screw. This end is designed to be screwed into wood or wooden structures, providing a secure attachment point. Machine Thread: The other end features machine threading, similar to a bolt. This end is intended to accept a nut or other threaded fastener, allowing objects to be securely hung or fastened to the threaded end. Hanger bolts are commonly used in furniture assembly, woodworking projects, and construction applications where a strong connection between wood and metal components is required. They are versatile fasteners, providing a convenient way to join different materials and create strong, stable connections.
