Description

The Ritchie Bolt Package (Part #16538) includes stainless steel bolts, nuts, and washers used to secure the top to the base on Thrifty King automatic waterers. Each package includes two complete sets and is commonly used on models like the CT1, CT2, and CT4 to ensure a tight, stable fit

What Ritchie calls this part. Ritchie’s own parts listing gives 16538 as: Top Bolt, Washer and Nut, two per package. That wording is worth knowing, because it is how the part appears on the unit breakdown you are working from.

Ritchie hardware is sized per unit, so order by part number. Several of these packages look alike and differ only in length, thread or pack count, and a bolt that is close is not the same as a bolt that fits. The part number on the old package, or the unit breakdown for your waterer, is the reliable way in.

The unit breakdowns linked below are our own, and every waterer listed there is one we have recorded as calling for the 16538.

Not sure this is the part you need? Send us your waterer model and we will check it against the breakdown.
