General guidance

Component knowledge

Understanding this component

In general, a 12 point head bolt has a head with twelve flat faces that accepts a 12 point socket or wrench, giving a stronger grip than a standard hex head. Heavy equipment fasteners like this are used to secure components under vibration and load, and the head style and thread details should be matched exactly to the original.

What to check before ordering

Please order using part number 0308539 as recorded in the catalog. Before purchasing, confirm the machine model, serial number and the parent assembly where this bolt is used, since catalog associations may carry conditions that are not shown here.
