Description
When you’re working on equipment repairs or making modifications, you need fasteners that’ll hold up to the job. This 5/16 inch elliptic head bolt is designed for those tight spots where a regular hex head won’t fit or where you need a smoother profile. The elliptic (oval) head sits flush and won’t snag on moving parts or your work clothes.
What You’re Getting
- Grade 5 strength rating handles the stress and vibration of farm work
- Zinc coating protects against rust and corrosion in all weather conditions
- UNC thread pitch matches most standard agricultural equipment threading
- Low-profile elliptic head won’t catch on belts, chains, or other moving components
- 1-1/4 inch length perfect for securing panels, guards, and brackets
Built for Real Farm Work
This versatile bolt works on everything from utility tractors to implements and shop-built equipment. The elliptic head design makes it ideal for areas where clearance is tight—think belt guards, engine covers, and anywhere you need a clean, snag-free surface. It’s the kind of bolt you’ll reach for when standard hex heads just won’t work.
Made to Last
The zinc finish isn’t just for looks—it forms a protective barrier that keeps moisture and road salt from eating away at the steel. Grade 5 strength means this bolt can handle significant loads without stretching or failing, even under the constant vibration of diesel engines and PTO-driven equipment.
Good to Know
The elliptic head requires a special wrench or socket, so make sure you’ve got the right tool before you start. If you’re replacing existing bolts, check that the head profile will work in your application—sometimes that low profile is exactly what you need, other times a hex head gives you better leverage for tightening.
