Overview — Grounding Screw 815-0955-03
815-0955-03 is the grounding screw used on CUMMINS engines and equipment to establish the electrical bonding point between components and the machine earth, providing a clean, low-resistance connection for the electrical system. We can supply this screw as well as related CUMMINS electrical components, in stock or available on order — welcome to enquire by part number.
Parts Characteristics
The screw is manufactured with a cross or hexagonal head design that accepts the standard drive tool, and it is sized and threaded to the original mounting point. The material and plating are chosen to maintain a low-resistance electrical connection while resisting corrosion in the engine environment. The bearing surface is finished so the attached cable lug or ring terminal seats cleanly against the component, and the thread engages positively so the joint holds its torque under vibration. As an OEM-spec grounding screw, it restores the designed earth path for the component it bonds.
Applicable Models & Applications
This grounding screw is used across CUMMINS engines and equipment at the specified bonding points, including starter grounds, alternator returns, harness earth points, chassis bonding and frame connections. Typical applications include construction, industrial, generator and marine installations where a reliable earth path is required for the electrical system to operate and for protection to function correctly. Confirm the thread size, length and head style against the screw removed from your equipment before ordering.
Maintenance & Replacement
Check grounding points during electrical fault diagnosis: a loose, corroded or missing earth screw is a common cause of intermittent electrical faults. Clean the mounting surface down to bare metal, fit the cable lug or ring terminal with the correct orientation, and tighten the screw to the specified torque. Apply a corrosion inhibitor approved for electrical connections where required, and confirm continuity between the bonded component and the machine earth after installation. Replace any screw with damaged threads, a worn drive, or corrosion that prevents a clean connection.
Price Reference (USD)
The reference price for this Grounding Screw (815-0955-03) is approximately USD 2 – 8 per unit depending on size, quantity and shipping destination. This is a planning estimate only — confirm current pricing and availability with our sales team before ordering.
Value & Service
An unreliable earth point can produce faults that are expensive to chase, so we verify 815-0955-03 against the original CUMMINS specification and confirm the thread, size and head style before dispatch. We stock the screw in bulk and offer quantity pricing for workshops and fleets, and orders can be combined with other electrical service parts into one tracked shipment. Our team can confirm the correct part number if you are unsure which grounding point your equipment requires.
