A carriage bolt, also known as a coach bolt or round head square neck bolt, is a type of threaded fastener designed for secure and durable connections in woodworking and metalworking applications. Carriage bolts are distinct in their appearance, featuring a round head and a square or rectangular neck just below the head. This square or rectangular neck prevents the bolt from turning when being tightened, making it suitable for applications where access to the nut is limited or difficult.
