Design: Feature a hexagonal head and a coarse, deep, self-tapping thread along the shaft, often with a pointed tip. In larger sizes, they may have a partially threaded shank.
Installation: Designed to be screwed directly into a pre-drilled pilot hole (recommended to prevent wood splitting) without a nut. They are driven using a spanner or socket.
Function: A heavy-duty single-component fixing used for heavy-duty wood joinery, such as securing decking frames to posts or fixing timber to masonry with a nylon wall plug.
Strength: Offer great grabbing power due to the coarse thread but are typically considered to have less ultimate holding power than a properly installed coach bolt and nut assembly.
