Description

Whether you’re repairing a three-point hitch, reinforcing a piece of equipment, or building something in your shop, having the right hardware on hand saves you a trip to town and keeps your project moving.
What You’re Getting
- Grade 5 strength that’s tougher than regular hardware store bolts but won’t break the budget
- Zinc and yellow coating that fights off rust and corrosion season after season
- UNC thread pitch that matches standard American threading you’ll find on most farm equipment
- 2-1/2-inch length that’s perfect for medium-duty connections where you need some extra reach
Built for Real Farm Work
This bolt size handles the kind of everyday repairs and modifications that come with farming and ranching. It’s perfect for medium to heavy-duty connections on tractors, implements, and shop-built equipment. You’ll use these bolts for everything from mounting brackets and reinforcing frames to securing implements and fixing broken attachment points.
Made to Last
Grade 5 bolts offer the sweet spot between strength and cost—they’re about 25% stronger than Grade 2 hardware store bolts but cost less than Grade 8. The zinc coating helps them stand up to moisture and road salt, so they won’t rust out on you in a season or two. The yellow chromate topcoat adds an extra layer of protection and makes them easy to spot in your hardware bin.
Good to Know
Always use a flat washer under the head and nut to distribute the load properly. A little anti-seize compound on the threads makes future removal much easier, especially if the connection might see heat or road salt. Keep a few extras in your toolbox—they’re handy to have when you need them most.
