Tension Control Bolt/Nut/Washer Assembly

Tension control bolts (TCBs) are specialized fasteners designed for structural steel connections in construction projects. They consist of a high-strength bolt, a washer, and a pre-tensioned spline that shears off during installation to achieve the desired tension. TCBs ensure uniform and controlled bolt tension, reducing the risk of over-tightening or under-tightening. Commonly used in bridge construction, high-rise buildings, and industrial facilities, TCBs offer reliable and efficient connections, capable of withstanding dynamic loads and seismic forces. These bolts undergo rigorous quality control and testing to meet industry standards, ensuring safe and resilient structures in critical infrastructure projects.
