The 1/2-13X1-1/2 Grade 8 Hex Flange Bolt features a high-strength construction made from quenched and tempered alloy steel. This material offers superior tensile strength and hardness, making it suitable for demanding structural applications where maintaining joint integrity is crucial. The Grade 8 classification indicates its ability to withstand high clamp loads without deformation, providing reliability in critical assemblies.
Coated with a yellow zinc chromate finish, this bolt offers enhanced corrosion resistance in mildly corrosive environments, extending its usability in outdoor or exposed settings. The chromate layer not only improves the bolt's durability but also increases its shelf life by providing a barrier against oxidation. This makes it a practical choice for applications where prolonged exposure to moisture or humid conditions is anticipated.
The hex flange design adds to its functionality by distributing the load over a larger surface area, reducing the risk of bolt loosening under vibration or dynamic loads. This design eliminates the need for separate washers, simplifying assembly and reducing potential points of failure. The 1/2-13 threading provides a robust grip, ensuring secure fastening in pre-threaded holes or when paired with compatible nuts.
