Description
When you’re building or repairing equipment that needs to handle serious loads and stay together under pressure, you need fasteners that won’t let you down. This 7/8-inch Grade 8 hex bolt brings maximum strength to the table—it’s the toughest bolt grade you can get and won’t stretch or fail when the going gets tough. The 6-inch length gives you plenty of material to work with when you’re bolting through thick steel or need to clamp multiple pieces together.
What You’re Getting
- Grade 8 steel construction—about 50% stronger than Grade 5 and twice as strong as hardware store bolts
- Zinc plating protects against rust and corrosion in outdoor conditions
- UNC (coarse) threads for strong grip and easier installation in field conditions
- 6-inch length handles thick assemblies and provides plenty of thread engagement
- 7/8-inch diameter offers serious clamping force for heavy-duty applications
Built for Real Farm Work
This bolt size is perfect for the heaviest connections on agricultural equipment where failure isn’t an option. You’ll find 7/8-inch bolts securing implement frames to tractors, holding together loader brackets, connecting cultivator shanks, and assembling structural components on combines and other large machinery. The extended length works great when you’re bolting through implement frames or need to sandwich thick steel plates together.
Made to Last
Grade 8 steel means this bolt can handle extreme stress without stretching or breaking—that’s critical when you’re dealing with the vibration and shock loads that come with field work. The zinc plating adds corrosion resistance so the bolt stays strong even when exposed to fertilizers, moisture, and chemicals that are part of everyday farming.
Good to Know
You’ll need a 1-5/16-inch wrench or socket to install this bolt. Always use a flat washer under both the head and nut to distribute the load properly on thick steel. When replacing worn bolts, it’s worth checking that the holes haven’t elongated from wear—if they have, you might need to step up to the next bolt size or add a backing plate for a solid repair.
