The galvanised Tap Bolt M8 is ideal for building sturdy bamboo constructions, such as bamboo pergolas, gazebos or canopies. Due to its 8 mm thickness, this tap bolt can withstand a lot of force and is suitable for connecting bamboo poles. The Tap bolt is fully threaded which means that the entire length of the screw is tapped. And available in different lengths. Is the bolt too long? Then you can easily shorten it with a hacksaw or angle grinder.
For perfect mounting, drill the holes to size with our special bamboo drill bit.

Tips:
- Use a wrench, size 13 for M8 bolts.
- Finish the connection with Manila- or palm rope this way you retain the natural look of the bamboo and the bolts are no longer visible.
- Don't forget to order lock washers and nuts.

  • Strong connection: The M8 tap bolt is 8mm thick, which makes it strong and durable. It can withstand high forces, ideal for heavy constructions.
  • Fully threaded: This tap bolt has a thread over its entire length, which ensures a firm grip and makes it suitable for heavy loads and fixed connections.
  • Rust resistance: Thanks to the galvanised layer, the bolt is protected against rust, making it very suitable for outdoor use and in humid environments.
  • Flexible in length: The tap bolts are available in various lengths and can easily be shortened with a hacksaw or angle grinder.
  • Combine with washers and nuts: Works well in combination with matching lock washers and nuts for extra strength and pressure distribution.

  1. Bamboo constructions: Ideal for connecting bamboo poles in projects such as pergolas, canopies, garden houses, fencing, and other bamboo construction projects. The tap bolt ensures a firm and secure attachment.
  2. Woodworking and joining: Due to its strength and full thread, the M8 tap bolt is suitable for wooden structures, such as fences and wooden frames, where a durable and sturdy fastening is required.
  3. Metal and garden constructions: Also suitable for attaching mesh panels and metal parts to, for example, garden posts. The galvanizing protects the bolt from rust, which is important for outdoor use.

Supplies: Make sure you have the correct size drill bit and a size 13 wrench or socket on hand.

  1. Drilling holes: Drill a 10mm diameter hole in the materials you want to connect. Make sure the holes are aligned properly. Order your bamboo drill bit to make the correct size holes.
  2. Install the tap bolt: Insert the galvanized M8 tap bolt through the drilled holes. Make sure the bolt goes completely through both materials.
  3. To attach: Turn the hexagon nut and washer onto the stud. If the hexagon bolt is too long, you can easily saw it off with a hacksaw or angle grinder. Preferably, only saw off the stud after you have turned the nut on.
  4. Problems with the nut: If you cannot turn the nut onto the stud, you can grind down the threaded end a little with your grinder so that the nut fits onto the threaded end again.
  5. Finishing: For a nice finish you can use Manila- or palm rope to wrap around the connection camouflaging the stud and maintaining the natural look of the bamboo.
  6. Check the Connection: Check that everything is securely fastened and the structure is stable.

The M8 galvanised hexagon nut is maintenance-free

How Strong is Bamboo?

Bamboo is remarkably strong and durable; it is often compared to steel because of its high tensile strength. This means that bamboo can withstand great forces without breaking. This property makes it ideal for applications in construction, furniture, and other products that require robustness.
