Value Collection 10019 T-slot Bolt 3/8-16 Steel Uncoated

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 10019 is a steel T-slot bolt designed to fasten workpieces and fixtures into T-slotted tables, machine tool beds, and fixture plates. The bolt features a 3/8-16 UNC thread at Class 3 fit, with a 1.5-inch thread length and a low-profile head that seats flush inside a 3/8-inch wide T-slot channel. The head measures 11/16 inches wide and 3/16 inches tall, keeping a low profile under clamping fixtures. Material is Grade 5 C-1045 steel, uncoated. Machinists, toolmakers, and fixture builders install these bolts when setting up workholding on milling machines, surface plates, and modular fixturing systems.

This T-slot bolt is suited for use on standard 3/8-inch T-slot tables common in machine shops, welding fixture tables, and precision fixturing setups. The 3-1/2-inch length under the head provides reach for deeper T-slot channels or stacked fixture components. The uncoated finish is appropriate for indoor shop environments where parts are regularly removed and repositioned. Single-piece packaging makes it convenient for replacement of a worn or damaged bolt without purchasing a full kit.
