Bolt 1315/3814Z JCB, aftermarket

Bolt 1315/3814Z is an aftermarket part for the JCB machines. According to the product card, this part is a bolt.

A bolt is a threaded fastener that clamps two or more parts together and holds them in place. The strength of the joint depends on the preload created when the bolt is tightened to the correct torque: the bolt stretches slightly and presses the parts together like a spring. A loose bolt works under vibration, ovals its holes and finally breaks from fatigue, while an overtightened bolt yields and loses its thread. On machines, bolts are therefore tightened to the specified torque and checked regularly.
