Value Collection 205158MSC Plow Bolt 5/8-11 Unc Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 205158MSC is a Grade 8 alloy steel plow bolt with a 5/8-11 UNC thread size and an overall length of 2.5 inches. Plow bolts feature a countersunk flat head with a square neck that locks against the mounting surface, preventing rotation during installation and service. This bolt meets SAE J429 standards for Grade 8 mechanical and chemical requirements, making it suitable for high-stress fastening applications. The uncoated finish is standard for field use where the mating hardware or operator preference dictates coating selection. Trades and equipment technicians working on earthmoving, agricultural, and heavy-duty machinery rely on this fastener type for blade and wear-plate attachment.

Plow bolts in this thread and length range are commonly used in agricultural equipment, road grading machinery, snow removal equipment, and construction earthmoving attachments. The 5/8-11 UNC thread and 2.5-inch overall length suit mid-range blade mounting applications where a countersunk head profile is required to maintain a flush surface. Grade 8 strength rating is appropriate where high clamping force and resistance to shear and tensile loads are specified by the equipment manufacturer.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard Grade 8 hex nut hardware
• 2.5-inch overall length suits typical wear-plate and blade mounting depths
• Grade 8 alloy steel meets SAE J429 mechanical property requirements
• Countersunk flat head with square neck resists rotation during torquing
• Uncoated finish for use where plating or coating is not required

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-pattern plow bolt for agricultural, construction, and road maintenance equipment requiring a 5/8-11 UNC Grade 8 fastener with a 2.5-inch overall length and countersunk head profile.

Installation Notes

Plow bolts are installed by qualified equipment technicians or mechanics servicing heavy-duty machinery. Shut down and de-energize all equipment before replacing blade or wear-plate fasteners. Use the appropriate impact or torque wrench for the application and always verify torque specifications in the equipment service manual, as they are not provided here. Inspect mating nut threads and seating surfaces for wear or damage before installation.
