Hillman 1/2 in. D x 6-1/2 in. L Zinc Plated Steel Hex Bolt – 25 Pack brings reliable strength to your everyday fastening needs. Built from sturdy steel and finished with a zinc plating, these hex bolts resist corrosion in mild outdoor conditions and busy workshop environments, giving you long-lasting performance where it matters most.
Why this bolt stands out for real-life projects:
-
Size and strength for general use — 1/2 inch diameter with a 6-1/2 inch overall length provides a robust, versatile option for thick materials and solid connections. This is paired with Grade 2 strength, a dependable choice for everyday hardware tasks without over-engineering for non-structural applications.
-
Coarse threading for quick, secure bite — the coarse threads bite into wood and softer metals with less effort, promoting faster assembly and reduces the chance of cross-threading when you’re working with lumber, pallets, or framing components.
-
Zinc plating for corrosion resistance — the zinc finish shields the bolt from moisture and environmental exposure, making it suitable for outdoor projects like decks, fences, garden furniture, and shed assemblies.
-
Convenient packaging — a boxed 25-pack keeps your hardware organized and ready for bigger jobs, so you’re not hunting for replacements in the middle of a project.
-
Versatile compatibility — designed to work with standard nuts, washers, and through-hole or tapped assemblies common in woodworking, cabinetry, and light structural tasks.
Ideal for:
- Decking and railing installations where sturdy, easy-to-drive fasteners are needed
- Furniture assembly and reinforcement of thick wood components
- Shelving fixes, brackets mounting, and other soft-material joinery
- DIY projects and repairs that require dependable, general-purpose hardware
Tips for best results:
- Pre-drill pilot holes in hard woods to prevent splitting, then drive the bolt using an appropriately sized wrench or socket for a secure fit.
- Pair with matching nuts or threaded inserts when joining through-thickness assemblies or metal brackets.
- Use washers where load distribution is important or where surfaces are prone to pull-through.
- Store the boxed pack in a dry place to maintain finish and readiness for your next project.
Choose the Hillman 1/2 in. D x 6-1/2 in. L Zinc Plated Steel Hex Bolts in a 25-pack for a practical, durable fastening solution that delivers consistent performance across a wide range of everyday building and repair tasks.
