Carriage bolt

Carriage bolt pertains to a bolt with a round head and square shoulder. The square shoulder gets pulled into the hole and keeps the bolt from turning when the nut is being tightened.

The round head doesn't need a washer, has no edges to scrape or catch things and gives a finished look.
