Key Features
- Grade 8 Tensile Strength — Rated at the highest common SAE fastener grade, this screw delivers the clamping force and shear resistance demanded by heavy-duty equipment applications.
- Correct Thread and Length Spec — The 1/2-13 UNC thread pitch and 1-3/4-inch length match the original bolt positions exactly, ensuring proper seating and torque engagement without alteration.
- Genuine OEM Quality — Sourced directly through Multiquip, part 16526 is manufactured to the same material and dimensional standards as the fastener originally installed at the factory.
- Broad Equipment Compatibility — A single part number serves multiple Multiquip machine families: MD80 trowels, MQ62TK trash pumps, WRS5200 and WRSPUDF roller screeds, WRS5200DFPU screeds, and MLT25DCA light towers.
- Structural Safety Assurance — In load-bearing and vibration-exposed fastener locations common to compaction and screed equipment, using an undersized or incorrect-grade substitute can lead to fastener fatigue and joint failure — Grade 8 spec eliminates that risk.
A hex head cap screw is a fully threaded or partially threaded fastener with a six-sided head designed to be driven by a wrench or socket. In heavy construction equipment, Grade 8 cap screws are specified for joints that must resist high clamping loads, vibration, and dynamic stress — conditions typical of trowels, screeds, pumps, and light towers. When a cap screw in one of these positions becomes stripped, corroded, or otherwise compromised, the joint it secures can loosen progressively, leading to component misalignment or detachment. Replacing it with the correct OEM-spec fastener restores the designed clamping force and keeps the assembly secure through normal operating cycles.
