Bolts are typically used for fastening items together. Used for both structural and decorative applications. Our hex bolts appeal more to a classic design. If going for an industrial look the smooth texture may be for you. If you would like a more rustic design you can take a look at our hammered or pyramid texture. When purchasing nuts and washers with this item you will want to select the same size as the diameter of the bolt.
We recommend using 3/8" diameter and above for structural applications.

- Black: The part is painted flat black. We recommend this option for parts that have no texturing done to them and for outdoor use.
- Oil Rubbed Bronze: A wax containing bronze is rubbed on the piece, leaving a bronze color to the high points of the metal where the lows will be black. Recommended for hammered or distressed textured items.
- Pewter: A wax containing pewter is rubbed on the part, leaving the silver-ish pewter color on the highs points of the metal and the lows will be black. Recommended for hammered of distressed textured items.
- Aged Bronze: A wax containing bronze is applied to the piece and then wiped away. This finish leaves the high points of the metal black and the low points a goldish-bronze color. Recommended for hammered or distressed items.
- Aged Pewter: A wax containing pewter is applied to the piece and then wiped away. This finish leaves the high point of the metal black and the low points a silver-ish pewter color. Recommended for hammered or distressed items.

United StatesWell made and artistic too
These work great with the 3"x3" old fashioned washers also ordered and also finished the same way. Look fantastic and strong as the job needed. Will order more from here and already recommending to others.

Hello Jason, So very happy you liked the Natural Rust Patina! The process of natural rust is hard to keep from flaking metal as it is a natural rusting process. We do not clean off the threads as that would take off some of the rusting patina. Thank you so much

I am looking at using your 3/8 inch or 1/2 inch hammered hex lag bolt to mount a barn door ledger board for a large (200lb) barn door. I will be using 2 bolts on every stud over a 14 foot span. The width of the ledger board is 1 3/4" inch plus 7/8" drywall. Can you recommend if the 3/8" or 1/2" lag bolt is preferred and will a bolt in 3 1/2" or 4" be preferred. Lastly how many days would it take to receive these in Southern California. Thank you Robert

Hey there, I do not work for the Old West Company, I am just merely a customer so I am not sure how I came to receive your question. As a Professional Design Builder I’d say always go bigger when it comes to needing strength, the cost is not much more for piece of mind reassurance. I’d recommend using washers the bolt as well and yes the 3 1/2 should do the job for you :)

Hi Robert, For a lag, I would suggest the 1/2". If you want a bolt, I would suggest the 3/8". I just want to clarify since we get this mistake a lot - the Lags are screws (pointed tip), the bolts are threaded to receive a nut. The product page you asked this question on is a bolt. I want to make sure you order the correct product. As far as lead time, I would expect about 5-7 business days to receive depending on the size of the order.

A:
No order is too small. I see that you are looking at the 1/4" hex bolts, so you would need the 1/4" nuts, and either our 1/4" USS washers or you could order our decorative washer with a 1/4" hole.
