At JM Hardware®, we are a trusted Tension Control Structural Bolt Manufacturer offering premium fastening solutions for construction, infrastructure, and industrial applications. Tension control (TC) bolts are designed for high-strength structural connections, providing exceptional durability, reliability, and ease of installation. As an experienced manufacturer, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality TC bolts that meet the rigorous demands of global industries. Whether for bridges, skyscrapers, or power plants, JM Hardware® ensures precision-engineered bolts that guarantee performance under the toughest conditions.
What Are Tension Control Structural Bolts?
Tension control bolts, also known as TC bolts or torque-controlled bolts, are a specialized type of structural fastener used in heavy-duty applications. These bolts feature a unique design with a splined end that shears off when the correct tension is achieved during installation. This ensures uniformity, reduces installation errors, and provides visual confirmation of proper tightening. TC bolts are widely used in projects requiring structural integrity and reliability.
Key Features of Tension Control Bolts
-
Precision Tensioning:
Ensures consistent bolt tension, reducing the risk of over- or under-tightening.
-
Ease of Installation:
No torque wrench is required; installation uses a shear wrench for fast and efficient tightening.
-
High Strength:
Designed for structural applications requiring superior load-bearing capacity.
-
Visual Confirmation:
The splined end shears off when proper tension is reached, ensuring every bolt is correctly installed.
-
Corrosion Resistance:
Available in various materials and finishes to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
Materials for Tension Control Structural Bolts
As a professional Tension Control Structural Bolt Manufacturer, we provide bolts in a variety of high-performance materials to meet the unique requirements of your projects:
-
Carbon Steel:
Offers excellent strength and durability for standard construction projects.
