Grade 5 Plow Bolt for Agricultural Implements and Tillage Equipment

Description

When you’re replacing worn plow shares, cultivator points, or other tillage components, you need fasteners that’ll hold up to the constant stress and vibration of field work. This 1/2-13 x 4-inch plow bolt gives you the strength and durability to keep your equipment running smoothly, even in tough soil conditions. The zinc chromate plating fights off rust and corrosion that tries to eat away at your hardware season after season.

What You’re Getting

• Grade 5 steel means it’s tougher than standard bolts but won’t break the bank like Grade 8
• Zinc chromate finish provides superior corrosion resistance compared to plain zinc plating
• 4-inch length works perfectly for mounting thick plow components and implements
• UNC threads ensure compatibility with standard agricultural equipment nuts and hardware
• Direct replacement for worn or damaged plow bolts on most tillage equipment

Built for Real Farm Work

You’ll find these bolts securing everything from cultivator points to plow shares on equipment from manufacturers like Glencoe, Kewanee, White, Taylor, and Krause. Whether you’re mounting new shares on your moldboard plow or replacing worn bolts on disc harrows and field cultivators, this is the hardware that keeps your tillage equipment working right. The 1/2-inch diameter handles the heavy loads that come with breaking up compacted soil and rocky ground.

Made to Last

Grade 5 bolts offer the perfect balance between strength and cost for most farm applications. The zinc chromate plating goes beyond basic protection—it actually bonds to the steel and provides long-lasting defense against moisture, fertilizer, and field chemicals that would quickly rust out cheaper hardware. This isn’t hardware store quality—it’s built specifically for the demanding environment of agricultural equipment.

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. When replacing multiple bolts on the same component, it’s smart to replace them all at once rather than mixing old and new hardware.
