Yuhe 4F3665 plow bolt

The supplier’s 4F3665 row gives an inch thread, length and mass. Use those references to start a drawing comparison; they do not approve the head, strength or installation of a cutting-edge joint.

Keep the inch specification intact

Similar millimetre numbers are not replacement specifications.

Yuhe’s table identifies 4F3665 as a plow bolt and writes 5/8″ UNC-11 × 3-1/2″, with a mass entry of 0.16 kg. [1] Read that designation before comparing a supplier drawing.

5/8 inch

Nominal thread diameter. Multiplying by 25.4 gives 15.875 mm; this arithmetic does not make the bolt M16 or define its actual diameter tolerance.

11 threads per inch, UNC

The published pitch reference is 11 TPI. Its arithmetic spacing is approximately 2.309 mm per thread. Confirm the thread class and gauging; do not substitute a metric pitch that looks close.

3-1/2 inches

The stated length converts to 88.9 mm. Request the drawing’s measurement convention, threaded length and unthreaded grip; the catalogue row does not define those features.

0.16 kg

A mass entry with unclear weighing scope. It is not a bolt load rating, clamp force, proof test or complete packed bolt/nut/washer weight.

ASME’s public B1.1 description covers unified inch thread form, series, class, allowance and tolerances. [3] Nominal diameter and pitch leave part of the specification unresolved. This review does not reproduce paid tolerance tables or certify the bolt to that standard.

Compare the head and grip with the actual seat

A matching reference begins the fit check.

Caterpillar’s own 4F-3665 page corroborates the 5/8-11 and 3-1/2-inch reference and describes its cutting-edge system with matched nuts and washers. [2] That is an original reference to consult; it does not prove Yuhe’s bolt is Cat-made, authorised, dimensionally identical or mechanically equivalent.

Resolve these features on a controlled drawing
Joint featureWhat to compare
Head and seatHead profile, height/width, countersunk-seat geometry and contact surfaces. The photo is not a scaled drawing.
Neck / locating featureGeometry below the head and the mating hole; intended locating and anti-rotation arrangement.
Grip and threadStack thickness, unthreaded grip, thread length and nut engagement against the approved joint specification.
Assembly referenceActual edge/blade reference, machine serial/configuration and revisions. “Excavator bolt” does not identify that assembly.

Cat’s selection depends on equipment configuration. Do not copy its model list into a Yuhe fit guarantee. Where an assembly has changed, reconcile current parts drawings and service requirements before approving a substitute.

State exactly what the order includes

The image shows a nut; the table calls the item a plow bolt.

The page shows a bolt and nut and uses “BOLT & NUT 4F3665” below the table. [1] It supplies no matched nut designation or complete washer specification. Ask whether the quoted unit is one bolt, a bolt/nut pair or an agreed kit, and list each reference.

Request item-specific material/mechanical requirements, the applicable strength standard/grade, heat-treatment records, finish/coating and lubricant condition. Cat’s carbon-steel and beyond-SAE-Grade-8 statements describe its own product; they are not Yuhe specifications. A neighbouring supplier listing labelled 12.9 is not evidence for this inch bolt.

No current grade or torque assigned

The reviewed Yuhe row establishes neither. Obtain part-linked documents and assembly instructions instead of inferring a grade from colour, a different fastener’s report or an OEM’s marketing.

Exclude the page’s very broad price range and general monthly-supply figure from a purchase calculation. Neither establishes a dated price or availability of this reference in the requested configuration and quantity.

Approve records for the actual shipment

A historic image cannot inspect a new lot.

  1. Agree the sample basis: use the accepted drawing/revision, composition and inspection plan.
  2. Check identity: reconcile part/lot marks and maker documents with the order; define identification on bolts, labels and packages.
  3. Verify specified features: record dimensional/thread checks and material/mechanical evidence using agreed methods and acceptance limits.
  4. Keep the chain: retain sample approval, lot records, inspection outcomes and packing counts for repeat orders or discrepancies.

The certificate page contains historical documents. [4] No reviewed report identifies a current 4F3665 shipment and its agreed requirements. For the company timeline and manufacturing-branch questions, read the individual Yuhe profile.

CivilEquip has not measured a sample, witnessed heat treatment or performed proof-load, tensile or installation tests. Acceptance limits should come from approved design/procurement requirements, not this catalogue review.

Hand over assembly information with the parts

Dimensional fit does not determine tightening.

Ask the responsible equipment/assembly supplier for the applicable installation procedure and joint-specific tightening requirements. Identify fastener grade, matched nut/washer, coating/lubrication condition, replacement/reuse policy and relevant inspection or retightening instructions.

No torque is calculated from the 5/8-inch size here. Yuhe’s reviewed page gives no friction assumption, preload target or installation instruction. Do not improvise a universal torque or treat a photograph as permission to reuse damaged mating components.

Agree packing counts, protection, discrepancy reporting and written replacement/support terms. Preserve specification and batch identity when storing fleet spares; later replenishment should not rely only on an unqualified “4F3665” label.
