A Delay Handled the Right Way
Honestly, if I were in Miami like my shipment was, I wouldn?t have been in a hurry to ship out either. I was frustrated at first ? delays cost me time on the job ? but Propel Parts stepped up.
Deb, Daniel and the team owned the mistake, kept the communication clear, and graciously refunded my shipping costs without making it a hassle. That kind of accountability is rare these days, and I genuinely appreciated how they handled it.
Things don?t always go perfectly, but these folks proved they?re more interested in doing right by their customers than just pushing parts out the door. Solid company, solid people.

P.S. Incredible quality on the pin as well. I had to do some custom modifying, and let?s just say the case hardening was ? well ? hard. Great Stuff! Thank you.
Great prices prompt courteous customer service and fast shipping.
Product Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 8T4196 bolt used for?
The 8T4196 is a fastening bolt that secures parts on Caterpillar equipment, providing the clamp load that keeps a joint tight in service.
How do I install the 8T4196 bolt?
Fitting the 8T4196 correctly comes down to clean surfaces and following the manual sequence. Work through these steps:
- Shut the machine down and isolate power before service
- Clean the threads and mating faces so debris doesn't affect clamp load
- Inspect the threaded bore and the 8T4196 for damage
- Start the bolt by hand to avoid cross-threading
- Torque it to the value and sequence listed in your service manual
- Re-check torque after the first operating cycle if the manual advises
Which Caterpillar machines is the 8T4196 compatible with?
Fitment for the 8T4196 depends on your specific Caterpillar model and the assembly it serves, so confirm the application before you order. If you are still unsure, reach out to Propel Parts, our team will be happy to help you verify if this part fits your equipment.
Does the 8T4196 bolt meet performance standards?
