COATS 8181172 Hex Head Cap Screw - OEM Replacement for Coats Tire Changers

One loose or missing bolt can take your tire changer out of commission. The COATS 8181172 HHCS is a direct OEM replacement fastener for Coats tire changers including the RC150, RC-45, 50X, 70X, and APX models. No measuring, no guessing, no cross-referencing generic hardware catalogs. This is the exact part Coats specifies for these machines, and it drops in without modifications.

What sets it apart from a generic hex bolt off the shelf: the 8181172 features a washer face under the head for stable load distribution, plus a chamfered thread point that seats cleanly during installation and cuts down on cross-threading risk. Under daily commercial use, it holds torque and resists vibration loosening. It won't mushroom or shear through back-to-back tire service cycles the way low-grade hardware can. High-grade steel construction keeps corrosion from becoming a recurring problem in a busy shop environment.

If you're doing routine maintenance, rebuilding a worn assembly, or just replacing a fastener that went missing, this is the part that gets your machine back to full spec. It's a small investment that keeps a much bigger piece of equipment running the way it should.
