Gibraltar 841010-G Steel T Bolt 1/2-13 Grade 5

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 841010-G is a Grade 5 steel T bolt designed for secure fastening in structural and mechanical assemblies. It features a 1/2-13 UNC thread form with a 2-inch thread length and a 5-inch length under the head. The T-shaped head measures 7/8 inches in width and 5/16 inches in height, providing a low-profile bearing surface suited for channel, track, and rail mounting applications. Fabricated from Grade 5 steel, this bolt delivers reliable tensile strength for demanding trade and industrial installations. It is a single-unit package with no minimum order requirement beyond one piece.

T bolts are commonly used in HVAC equipment mounting, strut channel assemblies, pool equipment framing, electrical enclosure installations, and general mechanical trade work where the bolt head must seat into a slotted track or channel. The 1/2-13 UNC thread is a standard coarse-pitch size compatible with the most common hex nuts, flange nuts, and coupling nuts used in trade applications. This fastener is appropriate for both residential and light commercial installations wherever a sliding or fixed track-mount connection is required.

Key Features

• Grade 5 steel construction for reliable tensile and shear strength
• 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard hardware
• 2-inch thread length provides ample engagement for nuts and locking hardware
• 5-inch length under head suits moderate-depth channel and structural applications
• T-head profile sized at 7/8 inches wide by 5/16 inches tall for track-slot seating

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/2-13 UNC nuts and hardware in slotted channel, strut, and track-mount assemblies common to HVAC, mechanical, and general trade installations.

Installation Notes

T bolts are installed by sliding or inserting the head into a channel slot before threading on the mating nut. Always de-energize and isolate any equipment before working in proximity to electrical or mechanical systems. Use appropriate torque wrenches to avoid over-tightening Grade 5 fasteners, which can cause thread stripping or bolt yielding. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the jurisdiction where the fastener is used.
