Helpful Expert Reply:
The Boat Buckle Mounting Bracket part # IMF14254 comes with Grade 5 hardware. You certainly could go to Grade 8 if you wanted to but as long as you are using these brackets like they were intended it would not be needed.
Fun fact...to determine the Grade of a bolt all you have to do is count the lines on top of the bolt head and then add 2.
