Value Collection 37717 Plow Bolt 7/8-9 Unc Grade 8 Alloy Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 37717 is a Grade 8 alloy steel plow bolt with a 7/8-9 UNC thread size and an overall length of 3.5 inches. Plow bolts feature a flat, countersunk head that sits flush with or below the surface of the mating component, preventing snagging and wear on abrasive contact surfaces. The Grade 8 designation indicates a high-strength fastener capable of handling demanding load and shear applications. This bolt is supplied uncoated, making it suitable for use as-is or for field treatment with a compatible coating or lubricant. Sold in a package quantity of 10, it is commonly used by equipment technicians, maintenance crews, and fabricators working on heavy equipment, agricultural implements, and construction attachments.

Plow bolts of this type are used across a wide range of heavy-duty applications including moldboard plows, grader blades, dozer blades, bucket cutting edges, and wear plate assemblies. The flush-mount head design reduces material hangup and extends the service life of the surrounding wear surfaces. The 7/8-9 UNC coarse thread pattern provides reliable engagement in steel components and allows for faster installation and removal in field conditions. This fastener is appropriate for use in both new assemblies and replacement applications where a Grade 8 strength level is specified.

Key Features

• Grade 8 alloy steel construction for high tensile and shear strength
• 7/8-9 UNC coarse thread for reliable engagement and field serviceability
• 3.5 inch overall length suits standard wear plate and blade mounting configurations
• Flat countersunk head design sits flush to minimize surface interference and wear
• Uncoated finish allows for field application of thread locker, anti-seize, or protective coatings
• Package quantity of 10 supports single-job or stock replenishment needs

Compatibility

Designed as a high-strength replacement plow bolt for heavy equipment wear components requiring a 7/8-9 UNC Grade 8 fastener with a 3.5 inch overall length, including moldboard plows, grader blades, and cutting edge assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by equipment technicians or heavy equipment service personnel. Ensure the mating component is drilled or punched to the correct countersink angle and diameter to achieve proper head seating. Torque to the Grade 8 specification listed in the equipment manufacturer's service documentation. Inspect the countersunk recess for wear or deformation before installing replacement bolts to ensure full head contact and correct clamping load.
