I put 2 of the same orders in due to a web page error and shortly after I was contacted by Deb from customer service asking if I meant to place both orders. She was very helpful, the email was very well written and it genuinely made me feel better about the whole experience. She resolved the issue quickly and with there not being much of customer service these days I was very happy so see that is not the case everywhere!!!

Great pricing and fast shipping!
I'll admit that I was skeptical of propel parts, but they are an honest site and came through with the order. I was skeptical because I've never ordered heavy machinery parts, and didn't know who to trust. The parts that I ordered showed in stock, but after checking with their vendor, they only had half of the order in stock. I was notified the day after the order, and most of the parts arrived in a few days. There was one part that was not shipped putz but I was able to talk with who I assumed is the owner who rectified the situation and had the part overnighted to me.
I will say that communication speed could use a little work, but they will eventually get back with you. -
Great service!
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Caterpillar 1T0720 12-point head bolt used for?
A: The 1T0720 is a 12-point (double hex) head bolt used in Caterpillar equipment where high torque is required in tight or confined spaces. The 12-point head allows greater wrench engagement and is commonly found in engine cylinder head and other high-stress fastening applications.
Why use a 12-point bolt instead of a standard hex bolt?
A: A 12-point bolt allows the wrench or socket to engage at more positions (every 30 degrees vs every 60 degrees for hex), which is particularly useful in tight quarters. It also distributes load more evenly around the head, reducing the risk of rounding.
What tool do I need to install the 1T0720 bolt?
A: A 12-point socket is required for this bolt. Do not use a standard 6-point socket, as it may not seat properly and can damage the bolt head. Use a torque wrench to apply the correct torque specified in your Caterpillar service manual.
Is the 1T0720 a high-quality aftermarket bolt?
A: Yes. This is a premium high-quality aftermarket bolt that meets or exceeds OEM specifications for tensile strength, head dimensions, and thread accuracy ??? delivering reliable performance as a direct replacement.

Which Caterpillar machines use the 1T0720 bolt?
A: This bolt is designed for use in various Caterpillar equipment. Check your service manual or reach out to Propel Parts for help verifying fitment for your specific machine.
Should 12-point head bolts be replaced after disassembly?
A: For critical engine fasteners like cylinder head bolts, Caterpillar typically recommends replacing bolts with new ones rather than reusing them after removal. Refer to your service manual for the specific guidance on this bolt application.
