It is a 3/8 inch low carbon steel.

For a bolt with designation of A307, the nominal diameter of a 5/8 (five eighths) inch bolt has an allowable tension of about 4,500 pounds and in shear, of about 3,000 pounds.
A carriage bolt of 3/8 could be made with a weaker material and therefore would withstand much smaller forces.
The above data is for information only and should not be rely on for your situation. You should check the specifications and consult with the manufacturer of the bolt how best to use its product. This much force can do a lot of harm, even kill.

Depends on the rating/class as well as the diameter, of the carriage bolt.

It depends on the size of the bolt and if the steel is hardened or not.

What size? (What diameter?)
a 1/4" bolt will take so much,a 3/4" will take so much more!
NEED MORE INFORMATION
