Because of the tapered head Id prolly go with carriage bolts,ny lock nuts and a splash of 5200.


Can you elaborate a little on this? I am just not familiar with carriage bolts in this setting.

What would be the benefit of them over the machine screws?

Machine screws have a "flat" head, carriage bolts have a rounded head, less water resistance, against flowing water
