It features a domed head and a square neck that bites into the material surface to prevent rotation during tightening, eliminating the need for a wrench or socket on the bolt end. Constructed from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this bolt offers solid tensile strength and basic corrosion resistance for indoor and protected outdoor installations. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces and is sized to Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis carriage bolt is suited for residential and light commercial construction, furniture assembly, deck building, and general mechanical fabrication. The 5\/16-18 UNC thread is a common size for through-bolt connections in wood framing, brackets, and equipment mounting. Installers working on decks, fences, or metal-to-wood connections will find this a standard fit for a wide range of structural fastening tasks. The zinc plating provides a measure of protection against moisture in semi-exposed environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare neck locks into workpiece surface to prevent bolt rotation during nut tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 5 steel construction provides reliable tensile and shear strength for structural applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance for semi-exposed environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-18 UNC thread is a widely compatible, industry-standard fastener size\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch length under head suits medium-depth through-bolt applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in multiples of 100, appropriate for production or batch fastening work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard UNC carriage bolt for use in wood-to-wood and wood-to-metal fastening applications where a 5\/16-18 thread and 3-inch grip length are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by carpenters, general contractors, or maintenance mechanics using standard hand tools. Drill a clean through-hole sized to the bolt shank diameter before insertion so the square neck seats properly and resists spin. Tighten the mating nut with a wrench to the specification called out in the applicable structural drawing or building code — do not over-torque, as this can deform the neck seat. Power down or de-energize any adjacent equipment before working in confined structural bays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC (Unified National Coarse)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.101 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161603\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: -32162-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692729467186,"sku":"-32162-1","price":8869.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4e5f59b395ca89ecc19b3969904d0b94.jpg?v=1788301843","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-32162-1-carriage-bolt-5-16-18-3-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
