Gibraltar 832790-G Swing Bolt 5/8-11 2.5in Thread Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 832790-G is a heavy-duty swing bolt designed for clamping and fixture applications in industrial and mechanical settings. Manufactured from Grade 1045 steel with a black oxide finish, this bolt features a 5/8-11 thread size and a 2.5-inch thread length. The swing bolt design allows the bolt to pivot out of the clamping path, making it well suited for quick-release fixture work, jigs, and press applications. Licensed trade professionals and millwrights select this style of bolt where repeatable clamping and fast repositioning are required.

This swing bolt is used in industrial clamping fixtures, machine tooling setups, and workholding applications where a threaded fastener must swing clear of the workpiece between cycles. The 5/8-inch hole diameter accepts standard fixture pins and studs. The 4.75-inch hole-center-to-end dimension and 0.75-inch head thickness make it compatible with medium to heavy clamping assemblies typical in production and maintenance environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians familiar with industrial clamping systems. De-energize and lock out any powered equipment before servicing or replacing clamping hardware. Verify that the fixture stud or anchor point matches the 5/8-11 thread specification before installation. Do not exceed the rated clamping load for the fixture assembly or use impact tools that may damage the thread form.
