The Multiquip 0016808015 is a genuine OEM Flange Bolt M8X15 designed for GBX series balloon lighting systems and towable towers, including the GBX24S, GBX24B, GBX12S, GBX12SK, and GBX24BK. As a direct OEM replacement, this bolt is manufactured to the exact dimensions and grade specification required by Multiquip for these units. Sourced directly through authorized channels, it ensures the correct thread pitch, shank length, and integrated flange geometry that the original assembly demands. If you are servicing or rebuilding a GBX series light tower, using the correct hardware keeps every fastened joint torqued and seated the way the machine was engineered.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Grade and Geometry — Manufactured to the precise M8x15 thread specification and flange diameter called out in Multiquip's engineering documentation — not a generic substitute.
- Integrated Flange Design — The built-in flange distributes clamping load across a wider bearing surface, eliminating the need for a separate washer and reducing the risk of joint loosening under vibration.
- Confirmed GBX Series Fitment — Verified for GBX24S, GBX24B, GBX12S, GBX12SK, and GBX24BK balloon lighting systems and towable towers.
- Structural Integrity Where It Counts — Loose or incorrect fasteners on light tower assemblies can lead to shifting components during transport or deployment; the correct bolt keeps panels, brackets, and mast sections locked in position.
- Safety-Critical Hardware — Fasteners on portable light towers and balloon systems are subject to road vibration and repeated setup cycles; using the specified OEM bolt maintains the clamping integrity the structure depends on.
A flange bolt combines a standard hex bolt with a wide, integrated washer-like flange beneath the head. This flange spreads the clamping force over a larger area of the mating surface, which is especially important on aluminum housings, thin panels, and bracket connections where a conventional bolt head could pull through or cause localized stress. On GBX series balloon lighting equipment, these fasteners secure structural and mechanical connections that must hold firm through transport, elevation cycling, and extended deployment. When a flange bolt is missing, stripped, or substituted with an incorrect size or grade, the joint can work loose over time, compromising the stability of the assembly.
