Tie Down Engineering 86206 Square U-Bolt, 1/2 inch-13 x 4 inch, Painted Steel, Pair
The Tie Down Engineering 86206 is a square-bend U-bolt used to mount roller brackets and other trailer hardware to a trailer frame or axle. It is sold as a matched pair, giving you both U-bolts needed for a single mounting point in one purchase. Each U-bolt is threaded 1/2 inch-13 and measures approximately 3-1/8 inches wide by 4 inches long, with a square bend shape that seats flush against square-tube trailer frame members for a secure, non-slip fit.
Construction is Grade 2 steel with a painted exterior finish for corrosion resistance in marine and trailer environments. The square profile distinguishes it from round-bend U-bolts and is intended for applications where the mounting surface is a square or rectangular tube rather than a round pipe or rod. This part is commonly used when replacing worn, rusted, or bent U-bolts on boat trailer roller brackets, bunk brackets, and similar frame-mounted hardware.
