Multiquip 12097 Screw SQHS 3/8-16 x 1-3/4 Inch Cone Grade 8

The Multiquip 12097 is a genuine OEM Screw SQHS 3/8-16 x 1-3/4 Inch Cone Grade 8 designed for Whiteman and International ride-on and walk-behind power trowels including JWN, HHN, HTN, JTO, HDA, B46, and J36 series machines. As a direct OEM replacement, 12097 meets the original engineering specification for thread form, cone point geometry, and Grade 8 tensile strength — ensuring the fastener performs exactly as intended in your trowel's assembly. Sourced directly through Multiquip's authorized parts network, this screw is the correct choice when rebuilding or servicing trowel components that depend on a high-strength cone-point fastener. Confirm your model against the fitment list before ordering to ensure an exact match.

Key Features

• Grade 8 High-Strength Construction — Rated to Grade 8 tensile requirements, this screw resists shear and fatigue loads that standard hardware-grade fasteners cannot reliably handle in power trowel applications.
• Cone Point Geometry — The cone point tip allows the screw to seat positively against mating components, locking into position and resisting loosening under the continuous vibration produced during concrete finishing.
• 3/8-16 x 1-3/4 Inch Specification — Correct thread pitch and body length drop straight into the designed bore without re-tapping or shimming, maintaining the original clamping stack-up.
• Genuine OEM Part — Manufactured to Multiquip's original specification, this fastener carries the correct material grade and dimensional tolerances required for the assembly it secures.
• Broad Trowel Fitment — Compatible across a wide range of Whiteman and International power trowel models including JWN24, HHNG5, HTN28K, HTN27K, HHN34TVD, B46, J36, HDA, and JTO series equipment.

A cone-point set screw or structural fastener of this type is used in power trowel assemblies to lock rotating or adjustable components firmly in place — the cone point digs into a mating surface or locating dimple to prevent rotation and axial movement under load. Grade 8 designation means the fastener is heat-treated to withstand high clamping forces and repeated vibration cycles without stretching or backing out. When this screw is missing, damaged, or substituted with an undersized or lower-grade fastener, the connected assembly can shift during operation, leading to uneven blade pitch, accelerated wear on surrounding components, and potential loss of control over the finishing head.
