    I used to use all-thread until I got bit.  I'll stick to 2" to 4" bolts as I have been doing.

      Don’t remember the source, but someone specifically recommended the mild steel in the all-thread in favor of the hardened (more brittle) steel of a 6-32 socket head screw -  and the idea was to have a horn that may flex a bit without fatiguing and breaking, as harder, more rigid materials can. 



      I can’t quote metallurgy on this one – all I know is that the mild steel all-thread into dowels set into square balsa blocks set into the control surface has never shown any problems…

      Another option- buy 6-32 all thread at local hardware store.

      Cut stud lengths as needed and thread into hard points with a bit of epoxy.

      Ive been using them for years for elevator, aileron, & rudder.
