Value Collection 30028 Steel T-slot Bolt 5/8-11 Uncoated

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 30028 is an uncoated steel T-slot bolt designed for secure fastening in T-slot tracks and machine tables commonly found in metalworking, fabrication, and industrial fixture applications. The bolt features a 5/8-11 UNC thread with a 2.5-inch thread length and a Class 3 thread fit, delivering a tight, reliable engagement in precision applications. Manufactured from C-1045 steel, it provides solid mechanical strength for moderate-to-heavy clamping loads. The head profile — 1-3/32 inches wide and 11/32 inches tall — is dimensioned to seat cleanly in a 5/8-inch T-slot channel. Machinists, tool and die makers, and millwrights typically specify this bolt for workholding setups on mills, surface plates, and jig tables.

This T-slot bolt is suited for use in industrial and commercial machine shop environments where repeatable workholding is required. It is appropriate for applications involving milling machine tables, drill press tables, and fixture plates with a 5/8-inch T-slot profile. The 10-inch length under the head accommodates deep T-slot channels or stacked fixture components that require extended bolt reach. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both new fixture builds and replacement of worn or damaged hardware.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread with Class 3 fit for tight, precise engagement
• 2.5-inch thread length provides ample engagement depth for standard nuts and clamps
• 10-inch length under head suits deep T-slot channels and stacked fixture assemblies
• C-1045 steel construction for reliable mechanical strength under clamping loads
• 5/8-inch slot width matches standard machine table T-slot profiles
• Uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect dimensional fit in close-tolerance slots

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 5/8-inch T-slot channels on milling machine tables, drill press tables, and industrial fixture plates that accept 5/8-11 UNC T-slot hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or millwrights using standard hand tools and torque wrenches appropriate for 5/8-inch fasteners. De-energize and lock out any machine before accessing the T-slot table or repositioning workholding hardware. Inspect the T-slot channel for debris or damage before insertion to prevent galling or binding on the head. Do not exceed clamping loads appropriate for C-1045 steel at the bolt diameter specified.
