Bolt - Hex Head, 0.875, 9 x 7, Grade 5
SAF-Holland

In heavy-truck and tractor applications, a mid-sized hex head fastener provides a reliable balance of strength, ease of installation, and compatibility with common tooling. The 0.875 inch shank diameter paired with 7/8-9 inch threads yield solid clamp load on essential mounting points while preserving sufficient engagement length for robust retention under vibration. Made from steel, the part resists shearing and bending during steering, braking, and suspension articulation, supporting consistent alignment and load transfer across the axle assembly. Its classification within the Truck and Bus Suspensions category signals its role in critical connections such as brackets, linkages, and crossmember mounts that influence wheel alignment and ride quality. VMRS code 053-007-005 locates it within the hex bolt family used for suspension hardware, enabling clear maintenance planning and parts forecasting. No dedicated cross references are listed, implying broad compatibility with standard OEM mounting patterns sharing the same thread characteristics. For service life, inspect threads for wear, corrosion, and galling, particularly in salt-prone environments, and replace if the fit no longer maintains the required clamp load. Proper installation includes clean threads and accurate torque application to avoid loosening and ensure continued suspension reliability.
