Cold heading process is one of the new processes for pressure machining of less or no cutting
metal. It is a processing method that utilizes the plastic deformation of metal under the action of
external forces, and with the aid of molds, redistributes and transfers the volume of metal to form
the required parts or blanks. The cold heading process is most suitable for producing standard
fasteners such as bolts, screws, nuts, rivets, and pins.etc
Gold-Plated Snow Blower Shear Bolts are specialized fasteners designed for snow blowers and other snow removal equipment. These bolts act as mechanical fuses, breaking under excessive load to protect the auger or drivetrain from damage. The gold plating offers both functional and aesthetic benefits:
Features:
-
Shear Functionality – Engineered to snap at a specific torque threshold, preventing costly damage to the snow blower’s gearbox or auger when hitting obstacles like ice, rocks, or debris.
- Snowblower shear bolt gold plated
-
Gold Plating – Provides corrosion resistance, reducing rust and wear in harsh winter conditions (salt, moisture, freeze-thaw cycles).
-
Precision Calibration – Made to OEM specifications to ensure consistent shear strength and reliable performance.
-
Easy Identification – The gold finish makes them easily distinguishable from standard bolts, aiding in quick replacement.
-
Durability – Often made from hardened steel with a gold electroplated coating for longevity.
Common Applications:
-
Snow blower auger assemblies
-
Drivetrain and impeller connections
-
Other machinery requiring overload protection
- Snowblower shear bolt gold plated
Replacement Tips:
-
Always use the correct shear bolt grade specified by the manufacturer.
-
Avoid substituting regular bolts, as they may not shear properly, leading to equipment damage.
-
Check and replace shear bolts at the start of each winter season.
- Snowblower shear bolt gold plated
These bolts combine critical mechanical protection with enhanced durability, making them ideal for heavy-duty snow removal in demanding environments.
