SS Coachscrews at Bunnings - Are they ok?	29-Jul-2014 At 9:41:36 AM	Mr Poopypants

I reckon just don't use them as permanent bolts. They are no where near as strong as machine bolts. If you don't believe me get one and try screwing it into a hardwood post. They snap really easily. Then try putting a machine bolt into some nuts in a vice and tighten it up. No way you will snap it, regardless of the leverage you use. I've used ss coach screws building and you need to make sure they are predrilled properly or they snap surprisingly easily. G
