Default material for connection items

Hi,

It is probably not the first time that someone is asking for this, therefore, my apologies for that.

But, I need to know how to set the default material for connection items in Revit (e.g. connection plates, connections bars, etc.).

I thought it could be possible by setting materials in object styles but it did not work (it is only possible for 

Plates and Profiles but not for Bolts, Anchors, etc.).

Is there any way to set the default materials for connection items in Revit 2023?

Thanks in advance
