Nuts and Bolts
Bolts are one of alternative fastener when nails do not have and the screws are not durable enough. Although nuts are small items that are frequently used, these two fasteners are generally used together to provide excellent security and load capacity. Basically, washers are used under the bolts heads to add extra holding power. Lock washers or nuts are also used to prevent the nuts from loosening or falling off. Malaysia people always used nuts and bolts. They are quick to remove and are available in different sizes. However, they do need to be pre-drilled for placement and will require many tools to tighten.
