Hardware and Fasteners

Why You Need Hardware and Fasteners?

The integrity of any high-performance linkage system is only as strong as its weakest connecting point. Our specialized hardware and fasteners are not generic parts bin items; they are engineered specifically to match the extreme loads, vibration demands, and safety-critical requirements of rod end and suspension applications.

Ensure Extreme Load-Bearing Capacity (Grade 8 / 12.9)

Never compromise safety with standard hardware-store bolts. We supply only maximum-strength SAE Grade 8 or Metric 12.9 fasteners capable of withstanding the immense shear and tensile forces that high-end rod ends are subjected to.

Utilizing fine-thread (UNF) pitch allows for greater torque precision and higher clamping preload. This is the automotive standard for preventing fasteners from loosening under constant chassis vibration and dynamic loads.

Critical applications require redundancy against loosening. Our kits include high-quality Nyloc nuts, which feature a nylon insert that mechanically locks onto threads, effectively preventing shock and vibration from backing the nut off.

Featuring durable zinc plating (yellow or clear), these fasteners are protected against rust caused by road salt, moisture, and grime, ensuring long service life and preventing parts from seizing together during future maintenance.

Stop wasting time sourcing mismatched components. Our complete, pre-packaged kits provide the correctly sized high-strength bolt, necessary washers, and locking nut in one package, ensuring exact fitment for your rod end bore size.

Our Hardware and Fasteners Advantages

Grade 8 / 12.9 High Strength

When using premium rod ends, you need the strongest bolts. We only offer SAE Grade 8 or Metric 12.9 high-strength fasteners to ensure maximum durability and reliability.

Fine Thread for Better Performance

Our fine thread (UNF) bolts provide greater preload and superior anti-loosening properties, making them the standard choice for automotive suspension systems.

Zinc Plated for Corrosion Resistance

With yellow or white zinc plating, our fasteners not only look great but also resist corrosion from harsh undercarriage environments, preventing rust and ensuring easy disassembly.

Complete Kits for Convenience

We offer complete kits that include bolts, Nyloc locking nuts, and washers, so you don’t have to hunt for individual components—everything you need in one package.

FAQs

Q1: What is the shear strength of these bolts?

Grade 8 bolts are extremely strong, designed to withstand the massive impact forces found in double shear applications, ensuring reliability under stress.

Yes, we offer stainless steel bolts, but please note they have slightly lower strength (equivalent to Grade 5) and are best used for non-load-bearing cosmetic components.

Yes, all our kits include Nyloc nuts, which prevent loosening due to vibrations, ensuring a secure fit in all applications.

Yes, we offer bolts in various lengths, increasing in 0.5-inch increments, to suit your specific needs when adding washers or spacers.

Yes, we sell individual nuts, but we recommend purchasing in bulk for better value, as kits are more cost-effective.

We accept T/T, PayPal (for samples), and L/C for large orders. For new customers, 30% deposit and 70% before shipment is standard.
