Description
When you're fixing equipment or putting together an implement, having the right fasteners on hand can save you a trip to town and keep your day on track. This 3/8-inch Grade 5 hex bolt with zinc coating is one of those handy pieces you'll want to keep in your shop for all kinds of repair jobs around the farm.
What You're Getting
- Grade 5 strength rating handles medium-duty applications without breaking the bank
- Zinc coating resists rust and corrosion better than plain steel bolts
- Standard UNC thread pitch works with nuts and threaded holes you already have
- Clean hex head gives your wrench or socket a solid grip every time
- 1-1/2 inch length is perfect for through-bolting plates, brackets, and lighter assemblies
Built for Real Farm Work
This size bolt shows up everywhere on farm equipment—from securing cultivator shanks and disc gang assemblies to mounting brackets on older tractors and implements. It's commonly used for securing implement frames to tractor three-point hitches, mounting cultivator assemblies, and connecting structural frameworks where you need reliable strength without going overboard on cost.
Made to Last
Grade 5 bolts hit the sweet spot between strength and price for most farm applications. The zinc coating helps them hold up to moisture and weather better than bare steel, though you'll still want to check them regularly in high-moisture areas like around irrigation equipment.
Good to Know
These are direct replacements for most OEM fasteners of the same size and grade. Keep a few extras around—they have a way of walking off or getting lost in the grass when you're working outside. A little anti-seize on the threads helps prevent galling if you're threading into aluminum or stainless steel.
