Value Collection BOEC15012wHex Steel Elevator Bolt 5/16-18

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BOEC15012wHex is a Grade 2 steel elevator bolt designed for applications that require a low-profile flat head and reliable clamping force. The bolt features a 5/16-18 UNC thread and measures 3/4 inches overall length. The head diameter ranges from 1.188 to 1.227 inches, providing a wide bearing surface. The uncoated steel construction makes this bolt suitable for standard indoor mechanical and structural assembly work. Elevator bolts are commonly installed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and general trade professionals in conveyor systems, belt-drive assemblies, and similar equipment.

This bolt is typically used in conveyor belt mounting, agricultural equipment, and light industrial machinery where a flush or countersunk head profile is required. The broad flat head prevents pull-through in soft or slotted materials. The 5/16-18 UNC thread is a standard coarse-thread specification, compatible with standard nuts and threaded inserts of the same thread class. This part is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5/16-18 UNC elevator bolt for use in conveyor belt systems, agricultural machinery, and light industrial equipment requiring a flat-head, wide-bearing fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, or mechanical contractors using standard hand or power tools. Always de-energize and lock out conveyor or belt-drive equipment before fastener replacement per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Use a properly sized wrench or socket to avoid rounding the nut. Do not apply coatings or threadlockers unless specified by the equipment manufacturer.
