3/8"-16 x 4" 18-8 Stainless Steel Hex Bolt — Corrosion-Resistant Upgrade Hardware

This 18-8 (304) stainless steel hex head bolt is a corrosion-resistant upgrade for trailer hardware where longer reach and long-term serviceability are priorities. At 4" long, it is commonly used in bracket stacks and mounting points exposed to water and road spray.

Stainless hardware is often selected in saltwater or high-exposure environments where coated fasteners can seize or degrade, making future adjustments difficult.

Part Number: 3000-100102
Component Type: Hex Head Bolt
Diameter / Thread: 3/8"-16 UNC (Coarse Thread)
Length: 4"
Material: 18-8 Stainless Steel (304)
Finish: Natural Stainless (Corrosion Resistant)
Common Use: Fender brackets and supports, small roller brackets, frame brackets, bow guide supports, tie-downs, lights, and license plate mounts
Function: Provides corrosion-resistant clamping across mid-depth bracket stacks while allowing future service and adjustment
Recommended Hardware: Use with compatible locknuts and washers; apply anti-seize compound during installation to prevent galling
Included: 1 Hex Head Bolt (nuts and washers sold separately)
Important Note: Stainless hardware offers excellent corrosion resistance but typically lower tensile strength than Grade 5 steel. Verify application before substituting for structural, load-critical connections.

Why Choose Stainless Hardware

  • Excellent corrosion resistance in wet and saltwater environments
  • Easier removal after long-term exposure
  • Reduced risk of seized or frozen fasteners

Best suited for serviceable components—not primary structural connections.

Installation Considerations

  • Always apply anti-seize compound
  • Avoid dry installation with impact tools
  • Use compatible locknuts to prevent thread galling

Improper installation can cause thread galling or seizure.

Real-World Insight

At EZLoaderParts411.com, 3/8" stainless bolts in this length are commonly used in accessory and bracket mounting where corrosion makes standard hardware difficult to service. Proper length ensures full thread engagement and reliable clamping over time.
