They give confidence when restoring furniture or assembling pieces that must look neat and hold firm. Are these hanger bolts the right choice for typical household projects?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Holding Strength: Self-tapping threads on both ends bite into each workpiece to form a firm mechanical joint
- • Best for: Home DIY, furniture repair and small workshop joinery where concealed fastenings are wanted
- • Not ideal for: Metal connections or certified structural applications requiring specialised fasteners
M8x60mm double-ended hanger bolts supplied in an eight-piece pack. Carbon steel construction with an electroplated finish and a flat midsection for alignment.
Secure, concealed joins - with double-ended self-tapping threads
Self-tapping threads are formed on both ends so each end cuts into the timber when driven, allowing two pieces to be drawn together without nuts. The double-ended configuration creates a direct wood-to-wood connection that behaves like a hidden dowel.
Strong, invisible joints suit furniture assembly and repairs where appearance matters and external fixings are undesirable.
Improved longevity - with electroplated carbon steel
Carbon steel cores receive an electroplated surface treatment that resists corrosion and helps prevent surface rust. The finish preserves thread form and reduces the risk of early degradation under normal household conditions.
Durable fastenings remain serviceable in everyday indoor environments, lowering the need for replacement over time.
Neater assembly and alignment - with a flat middle section
A flat midsection stabilises the hanger bolt between the two timber pieces and helps maintain correct alignment while tightening. Pre-drilling small pilot holes is recommended to guide the threads and minimise splitting.
Easier, cleaner installations for carpentry projects, especially when matching edges or keeping surfaces flush are important.
