What Is A Stair Tread Bracket? - Stairway Construction Parts

stairs4u.com/st... Click on this link for descriptions of other stairway parts and make sure that you check out some of our fantastic stair building books. Most stair tread brackets are going to be made out of metal, but some of them can be made out of wood. Some exterior and interior stairways like these can also use routered out or dadoed stair stringers, with stair treads inserting into slots and therefore no need for stair tread brackets.

Are carriage bolts stronger or lag bolts for attaching wood treads to stringers when using metal brackets ??

It will depend upon the size and installation, but I would say that the winner would be carriage bolts.
