Width, Pair","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Tie Down Engineering 86208 is a square U-bolt sold as a pair, built for trailer roller bracket and axle mounting applications. Each U-bolt measures 4 inches in length with a 1-3\/4 inch width across the square bend, and is threaded 3\/8 in.-16 on both ends to accept standard hex nuts. Constructed from alloy steel rated to Grade 8.8 hardness, the 86208 is engineered to handle the repeated load and vibration stress common on boat trailers, utility trailers, and roller bracket assemblies. The threads are cut Unified National Coarse (UNC), right-hand, full thread, class 3A, so they mate cleanly with standard 3\/8 in. Hardware. A matte or brushed finish resists surface wear during installation and field use. Because this is a square-bend U-bolt rather than a round-bend, it is intended for square tube or square bracket stock rather than round pipe or round axle housings. The pair is sold together so both mounting points on a bracket or roller assembly can be replaced or upgraded at the same time with matching hardware. This part carries a full manufacturer's warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tie Down Engineering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86208\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-3\/4 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/8 in.-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e UNC (Unified National Coarse), Right Hand, Full Thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Class:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness Grade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grade 8.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Matte or Brushed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.72 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair (2 U-Bolts)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a square-bend U-bolt intended for square tube or square bracket mounting; no specific make, model, or year fitment is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo OEM cross-reference numbers are specified for this part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the Tie Down Engineering 86208 U-bolt?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 86208 measures 4 inches in length by 1-3\/4 inches in width, with 3\/8 in.-16 threads on both ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 86208 sold as a single U-bolt or a pair?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 86208 is sold as a pair, giving you two matching square U-bolts per package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat shape is this U-bolt?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a square-bend U-bolt, designed to mount onto square tube or square bracket stock rather than round pipe or round axle housings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the 86208 U-bolt made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 86208 is made from alloy steel rated to Grade 8.8 hardness for load-bearing trailer applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat thread size and type does the 86208 use?\u003c\/strong\u003e It uses a 3\/8 in.-16 UNC thread, right-hand and fully threaded, in thread class 3A, so it accepts standard 3\/8 in.
