The Multiquip 00160 Socket Head Bolt M8X15 Black is a genuine OEM fastener designed for DLW500ESA4 welder and GBX series balloon system equipment. As a factory-sourced component, this bolt is manufactured to the exact dimensions and finish specifications required by Multiquip, ensuring a secure, rattle-free fit in every application it was engineered for. Sourced directly through authorized distribution channels, the 00160 delivers the confidence of an exact OEM match across compatible DLW500ESA4, GBX24BK, and GBX12SK models. When fastener integrity matters, replacing worn or damaged hardware with the correct OEM specification keeps assemblies tight and correctly torqued.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fastener Grade — Manufactured to Multiquip's exact thread pitch, length, and hardness spec for the M8x15 socket head bolt application, so torque retention is consistent and predictable.
- Black Oxide Finish — The black finish provides corrosion resistance and is the correct surface treatment for this installation, matching the original hardware exactly.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Socket head profile seats correctly into recessed bolt pockets without modification, maintaining the original clamping geometry of the assembly.
- Broad Compatible Fitment — Verified for use on DLW500ESA4 diesel light welders and GBX24BK and GBX12SK balloon system units within the Multiquip equipment lineup.
- Structural Integrity Assurance — Using the correct grade and length bolt prevents fastener fatigue, stripping, and loosening under vibration — risks that arise when off-spec hardware is substituted.
A socket head bolt is a precision fastener with a cylindrical head and internal hex drive, designed to be tightened with an Allen key or hex socket tool. It is used in applications where a low-profile, high-strength fastening point is required — typically in panels, housings, or structural brackets where a standard hex-head bolt would not fit or would protrude. When a bolt of the wrong length, thread pitch, or grade is used as a substitute, it can lead to stripped threads, loose assemblies, or fastener failure under load, which can compromise the integrity of the equipment it holds together.
