Plain Grade 5 Steel Clipped Head Plow Bolts are specialized fasteners designed for various heavy-duty applications. Here are their primary uses and characteristics:

1. Agricultural equipment: These bolts are used to attach side cutters or tines to plows.
2. Road construction machinery: They are utilized in road graders and scoop shovels.
3. Heavy-duty equipment: Various types of industrial and construction machinery employ these bolts.
4. Automotive industry: They are suitable for certain automotive applications.

Key Features and Benefits

Smooth Surface: The clipped head design allows for a flush installation, creating a smooth surface where the bolt head protrudes. This feature is particularly important in applications where a flat surface is required to prevent snagging or interference.

Strength: Grade 5 bolts are made from medium carbon steel, providing moderate strength for applications with moderate stress. They are stronger than Grade 2 bolts but not as strong as Grade 8 bolts.

Countersunk Design: The flat, countersunk head of these bolts allows them to sit flush with the surface they are installed in.

Square Neck: The square neck under the head of the bolt prevents rotation during installation and use.

Material and Finish: These bolts are typically made of plain steel, though zinc-plated versions are also available for improved corrosion resistance
