Description
You’re mowing along just fine when you hear that telltale crack and suddenly your blade stops spinning. What happened? Your shear bolt did exactly what it was supposed to do—break before something more expensive did. When your rotary cutter, flail mower, or other implement hits a rock, stump, or piece of buried metal, these little bolts sacrifice themselves to protect your gearbox, PTO shaft, and tractor from serious damage.
What You’re Getting
- Ten M8 x 55mm shear bolts ready to keep your equipment safe
- Designed to break at just the right force—not too early, not too late
- Standard metric threading that fits a wide range of implements
- Proper length for most general-purpose applications
- Smart to keep extras on hand so you’re not stuck in the field
Built for Real Farm Work
These bolts work with general-purpose implements where you need that safety breakaway feature. Whether you’re running a rotary cutter through overgrown fence rows, using a flail mower on rough pasture, or operating any implement with rotating parts, shear bolts are your first line of defense against costly repairs. They’re the cheap insurance that saves expensive parts.
Made to Last
Each bolt is manufactured to break at the right load—consistent and reliable. They won’t snap when you hit normal grass and weeds, but they’ll give way before your implement’s internals get damaged. The M8 size and 55mm length make them suitable for a variety of equipment where this specification is called for.
Good to Know
Always carry spares—you never know when you’ll need one. Replace both bolts if your implement uses a pair to keep things balanced. When a shear bolt breaks, check what caused it before installing a new one. If you’re breaking bolts frequently, you might be running too fast for the conditions or need to clear the area of debris first.
