Value Collection 37693 Plow Bolt 1/2-13 Unc 2 Inch Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 37693 is a Grade 8 alloy steel plow bolt designed for heavy-duty fastening applications. With a 1/2-13 UNC thread size and a 2-inch overall length, this flat-head plow bolt provides the high tensile strength required in demanding structural and equipment assembly environments. The uncoated finish is standard for Grade 8 fasteners used in applications where a secondary coating or treatment will be applied on-site. Plow bolts are engineered with a flush or countersunk head profile to sit level with or below the mating surface, preventing snag points in high-wear assemblies. Installation is handled by mechanics, equipment technicians, and maintenance trades working on heavy equipment, blades, and structural steel.

This plow bolt is suited for use in agricultural equipment, construction machinery, and heavy fabrication assemblies where Grade 8 tensile ratings and a flush-mount head are required. The 1/2-13 UNC thread is a coarse-thread standard, making it well-suited for use in cast iron, thick plate steel, and other ferrous materials where thread engagement and pull-out resistance are priorities. Sold in quantities of 25 per package, this SKU is appropriate for both job-lot procurement and shop stock replenishment.

Key Features

• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high tensile and proof load strength
• 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread for reliable engagement in ferrous base materials
• Flat head profile for flush or countersunk surface mounting
• 2-inch overall length suits standard mid-range fastening depth applications
• Uncoated finish for applications requiring field-applied surface treatment
• Sold 25 per package for convenient job-site or shop-stock use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-specification replacement or new-installation plow bolt for heavy equipment, agricultural implements, and structural steel assemblies requiring 1/2-13 UNC Grade 8 fasteners with a flat head profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified mechanics or structural assembly technicians following applicable torque specifications for Grade 8 fasteners at this thread size. Use a properly calibrated torque wrench and ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. Do not mix Grade 8 fasteners with lower-grade nuts or hardware, as mismatched hardware grades can compromise joint integrity. Follow ASME or equipment manufacturer fastener torque guidelines for the specific application.
