The bolt goes through a hole or slot in the rack to hold the black thing solidly to the rack, that bolt does not touch the threaded part that goes through the hole in the black part.
If you are putting this rack that you bought without hardware on your bike, maybe you should buy the hardware that was supposed to be included with that rack?
