John Deere specifies a 5/16 x 2 1/8=E2=80=9D bolt to hold rake teeth on =
their older hay rakes =E2=80=93 a very low tech application. I always =
think =E2=80=93 why? I use 2 =C2=BC=E2=80=9D long bolts and it works =
fine. As far as a blind hole goes, you could always run a bottoming tap =
in there to make sure you have a full thread to the end. Make sure the =
hole is clean with no oil taking up the space =E2=80=93 that can cause =
the bolt to =E2=80=9Cbottom out=E2=80=9D before it really does.

I need a bolt HB815 which is at 5/16 x 1 7/8" long.=20

Rimmer and TRF list this no. under a 2 inch bolt. I'm assuming you can't =
get 1 /78" long bolt anymore. I tried fastenal and Bolt Depot. Not tried =
mcMaster carr.=20

The last time I needed one of these I bought a 2" bolt and cut a bit of =
the end.

I'm just wondering when a blind hole is drilled for a bolt, how much =
dead space is left at the end? Is there some rule of thumb?

Sujit,

Not sure what threads you are looking for, McMaster-Carr sells a =
5/16=E2=80=9Dx1-7/8=E2=80=9D bolt in SS or Grade 5.  But I think =
you=E2=80=99re on the right track, cut an 1/8=E2=80=99 off the end and =
move on.
