Gibraltar 842335-G Steel T-slot Bolt 3/8-16 Black

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 842335-G is a Grade 5 steel T-slot bolt designed for securing components within T-slotted framing systems, fixture tables, and machine tool beds. The bolt features a 3/8-16 UNC thread with a 2-inch thread length and fits slots measuring 3/8 inches wide. The head profile is engineered to slide into standard T-slots and resist rotation during fastening. A black finish provides basic corrosion resistance for shop and industrial environments. This fastener is installed by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance trades working with modular framing and workholding setups.

This T-slot bolt is suited for use in industrial and manufacturing settings where modular aluminum or steel extrusion systems, fixture plates, and T-slotted work surfaces are common. It is appropriate for both light fixturing and general assembly applications requiring a reliable, removable fastener in a standard 3/8-inch T-slot channel. The 3-1/2-inch length under head accommodates stacked components or thicker fixture members.

Key Features

• Grade 5 steel construction for reliable tensile strength in structural fastening applications
• 3/8-16 UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard nuts and hardware
• 3/8-inch slot width fits common T-slot extrusion channels and fixture table grooves
• 2-inch thread length provides adequate engagement for most fixturing configurations
• 11/16-inch head width and 3/16-inch head height suit standard slot profiles without modification
• Black finish for basic surface protection in shop environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or supplemental fastener for T-slotted framing systems, fixture tables, and machine tool setups using 3/8-inch wide T-slot channels with 3/8-16 UNC hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by inserting the bolt head into the open end of a T-slot channel and sliding it into position before threading on the mating nut or component. No special tooling is required beyond a standard wrench or socket for the fastening nut. Ensure the slot channel is free of debris before installation to allow smooth bolt travel. De-energize or lock out any powered equipment before installing or adjusting fasteners on machine tool beds or automated fixtures.
