The Multiquip 13217 is a genuine OEM HHC Screw 3/8-16X6" GRD5 designed for Essick PRO12, PRO12E51, and PRO12E53 stationary mixers. As a Grade 5 hex head cap screw, this fastener meets the tensile strength and dimensional specifications required for demanding mixer applications. Sourced directly from Multiquip, part 13217 ensures a correct, like-for-like fit with no guesswork on threading or length. If you're servicing an Essick PRO12 series stationary mixer, this is the exact replacement fastener specified for the job.
Key Features
- Grade 5 Tensile Strength — Meets the minimum strength rating required for structural fastener applications on heavy-duty mixing equipment, resisting shear and tension under continuous load.
- Exact Thread and Length Specification — 3/8-16 UNC threading and 6-inch length match the original hardware precisely, threading directly into existing tapped holes without chasing or modification.
- Genuine OEM Quality — Supplied as an authorized Multiquip OEM component, manufactured to the same material and dimensional standards as the fastener originally installed at the factory.
- Confirmed Fitment for PRO12 Series — Verified for use on PRO12, PRO12E51, and PRO12E53 Essick stationary mixers — use part number 13217 to confirm the correct selection before ordering.
- Structural Reliability Under Vibration — Heavy-duty mixer operation generates continuous vibration; a correctly specified Grade 5 fastener maintains clamping force and prevents joint loosening over time.
A hex head cap screw like the Multiquip 13217 is a structural fastener used to join and secure major assemblies on the mixer, such as the frame, motor mount, or drum support. Unlike standard bolts, a Grade 5 rating indicates a controlled carbon steel composition and heat treatment process that delivers a defined minimum yield and tensile strength — critical in applications where vibration, torque, and load cycles are constant. When a fastener in this role stretches, strips, or fails, it can compromise the structural integrity of the assembly and create unsafe operating conditions, making replacement with the correct OEM specification essential.
