General guidance

Component knowledge

Understanding this component

In general, a socket head bolt is a threaded fastener with a cylindrical head that is driven with a hex key or socket tool, often used where a recessed, flush-looking fastening is needed. Heavy equipment catalogs list such fasteners by part number so that the exact size and specification can be matched to the assembly they secure.

What to check before ordering

Use the part number 0138253 exactly as listed when ordering. Before purchasing, check the catalog's recorded parent assembly conditions and serial ranges against your machine, since a catalog association does not establish compatibility for every configuration.
