Looking at the plow bottoms book referenced in Plows Parts 101 in the Knowledge center, there were several different bolts used for blades/shares some with #3 heads, most were 3/8" but different lengths. Some changed with age of the share, some changed with different shares. To find a part number and description you will need to identify the bottom and the blade number.

"Dave the plowman" is here on the Forum and sells all kinds of plow parts and NEW bolts, so he might be able to help you as well. I believe he's from Minnesota. Rick

McMaster-Carr has only #3 flat head or dome head with a square shank in 3/8". Basically a flat head carriage bolt. I don't that that's what fits vintage AC blade or shares.

Lase time I needed one for the cutting edge on my three point blade, I took an original as an example went shopping. Around here the farm supply stores like Rural King,, Farm and Fleet, Big R's, Farm and Home carry some variety of plow bolts. i think even the Stealers like John Deere and Case IH stock some. Found a match on the first stop.

I do have the torched off head of the bolt in the car ready to take into the store with me.
