GRADE 8 U-BOLTS

We manufacture U-Bolts to YOUR specifications. We have a large inventory of threaded rods measuring from 8" in length to 52" and diameters from 3/8" to 1 1/4". U-Bolts come in three primary shapes: ROUND, SEMI-ROUND and SQUARE.

How to measure u-bolts:

The Measurements: A: Rod Diameter

B: Inside to Inside

C: Leg Length Inside

Type Of Bend: Round, Semi-Round*, Square

Note: there are many different styles of the Semi-Round. Be sure to include the make of vehicle when sending inquiry. For more info go to Technical Information Page

Removed U-Bolts should NEVER be placed back onto the vehicle, they should be thrown away. Suspension U-Bolts are manufactured with a smooth rolled thread, while the mating Hi-Nuts are manufactured with sharp cut threads. When a U-Bolt is tightened to it's recommended torque level, the U-Bolt threads stretch as they mate with the Hi-Nuts. Although, not always visible to the naked eye, this damages the threads. Removing the Hi-Nuts from the U-Bolt will cause a cross-threading that will not allow the U-Bolt to be adequately re-torqued. A common practice in most maintenance facilities is to use a impact wrench to tighten U-Bolts. Consistent, accurate torque is next to impossible to obtain with a impact wrench, and in most cases an over-torqued fastener is the result. We recommend using a torque wrench when installing U-Bolts. New U-Bolts should be torqued after 2 weeks of usage.
