Why Use This Bolt?
Using the OEM-specified carriage bolt (part number 114851) ensures that your Graco equipment remains assembled to manufacturer’s design — with correct shaft dimensions, head type, and mechanical strength.

Frequently Asked Questions
A “carriage bolt” features a smooth or rounded head and a uniform shaft — often used where a flush or snag-free exterior surface is needed, and where the bolt must not rotate during tightening. It is ideal for housing, frame or cover assemblies where external bolt heads must remain smooth. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
While a generic carriage-type bolt might physically fit, only the OEM part guarantees correct shaft length, head profile, threading and material — important for secure fitment, leak-proof assembly and long-term reliability. Generic bolts may not meet precise tolerances required for fluid-handling equipment.
