Many COTS items are specified by the spec they meet. To get around the statement the material meets all customer specifications, for the types of COTS items in this case, can you get a cert saying the item complies with a particular spec, such as an alloy (such as 4130 steel), a bolt grade (such as SAE grade 8), etc.?

Right, but we couldn't get those certs/COCs from distributors or manufacturers.

I have never, not even once, been able to get a COC from a COTS distributor....
Currently I am a COTS distributor...and I will forward the original manufacturer's CoA (if any) as a favor...but it will not have any reference to me other than the sender's email address (mine).

If someone wants me to provide a CoA from the direct supplier (my company), the answer is a flat "this is not something we offer".

Try to get a CoA from McMaster Carr...and best of luck to you.
