Value Collection 205138MSC Plow Bolt 5/8-11 Unc 2 in Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 205138MSC is a Grade 8 alloy steel plow bolt with a 5/8-11 UNC thread size and a 2-inch overall length (OAL). Plow bolts are designed with a flat, countersunk head that sits flush with the surface of the mating component, preventing snagging and wear in high-abrasion applications. The uncoated alloy steel construction meets SAE J429 standards for Grade 8 mechanical properties, delivering the high tensile strength required in demanding fastening applications. This bolt is a standard choice for equipment fabricators, agricultural mechanics, and heavy-equipment technicians working on ground-engaging attachments and structural assemblies.

Plow bolts of this specification are commonly used in agricultural equipment, construction machinery, and any application where a flush-mount fastener is required on a wear surface. The 5/8-11 UNC coarse thread provides reliable engagement in steel and cast iron components. Typical install scenarios include moldboard plows, blades, cutting edges, and similar ground-engaging parts that see repeated impact and abrasion. Mechanics and equipment technicians working in agricultural and heavy-equipment settings will find this bolt sized for the most common 5/8-inch fastener applications in those fields.

Key Features

• Grade 8 alloy steel construction meets SAE J429 for high tensile strength requirements
• 5/8-11 UNC coarse thread for reliable engagement in steel and cast iron
• 2-inch overall length suits standard blade and cutting-edge fastening applications
• Flat countersunk head design sits flush to minimize surface protrusion and abrasion snagging
• Uncoated finish for use where coating is not required or where field modification is anticipated

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fastener for agricultural equipment, construction machinery, and other assemblies requiring a 5/8-11 UNC flush-mount plow bolt with a 2-inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by agricultural mechanics or heavy-equipment technicians using standard hand tools and an appropriate torque wrench rated for Grade 8 fasteners. Always de-energize or shut down the equipment completely before replacing fasteners on blades or cutting edges. Use a properly rated Grade 8 compatible nut and hardened washer where specified by the equipment manufacturer. Do not reuse fasteners that show signs of thread damage, stretching, or corrosion.
