Hot Dip Galvanized High Strength Bolts

Characteristics
The weight of zinc coating is over 550g/m2 and boasts of long-term anti-corrosive effects. Strength and toughness of bolts are maintained before and after zinc coating. Nuts are lubricated after zinc coating. Torque coefficient of set is low and stable. Method of nut rotation degree is superior for fastening. These bolts, nut and washers have passed the Minister of Constructions general approval.

The allowable shearing force is calculated in accordance with the following equation in which slip factor is regarded as a constant of 0.4. The allowable tensile force observes the Standard Design of Rigid Structures indicated by the Japan Architectural Society. Allowable shearing force = 0.4 x Bo (Tensile force of bolt design)

Execution Works
Fastening the high strength bolt
Primary Fastening : Primary fastening includes tightening the temporary fastening bolt, checking the contact
with the parts and then turning the nut according to the torque value indicated below, for all bolts.

Marking : Mark the bolt, nut, washer and parts after primary fastening to check the degree of primary fastening,
measure the tightness of the nut, check to see all bolts are tightened and to discover any bolts, nuts and washers turning together.

Final Fastening: Final fastening is conducted by turning the nut 120 , after Primary fastening and marking a group unit. Determine how many times the nut should be turned if the bolt length is over 5 times larger than the diameter of the bolt. Inspection After Fastening: Visually examine the nut to confirm that it is within a -30 ~ +30 range of the
specific nut rotation degree. Nominal Bolt Diameter M16 M20 & M22 M24 & M27 M30 Primary fastening torque (N.M) approx. 100 approx. 150 approx. 200 approx. 250
