It typically mounts on the vehicle chassis and, when paired with a grounding bolt containing a semiconductor circuit, allows the rack’s monitor to confirm the vehicle is properly grounded before transferring flammable liquids, preventing static discharge hazards. The ball may need replacement if it becomes corroded, damaged, or the vehicle fails a ground verification test. Note: Although the inventory lists this as a ‘Ground Bolt,’ the FT451 part number is actually the grounding ball; the bolt is FT450.
