Anchor Bolt Types

  Anchor Bolt: Anchor bolts fasten structural components to concrete structures and secure them. In general, anchor bolts are used to fasten structural elements, equipment, and skids to concrete. The anchor bolts have one end that is buried in the concrete and the other end that is left exposed. It is actually a stud constructed of two adjoined pieces, one-piece is threaded at the top end and the other end consists of a process that includes a wedge and clip that is expanded between the stud and the wall of the hole in the concrete. The  anchor bolt  are generally a good option for a heavy shear application and for heavy load. Also the heavier duty seismic wedge anchors are used in areas frequented by seismic activities. Anchor Bolt Types Sleeve Anchor Bolts: A sleeve anchor is a type of fastener used to secure objects to a concrete or masonry structure. They can be used to join two or more concrete structures, or to fasten an object such as a shelf to a brick wall.  Headed Anchor Bolt

Benefits of Stainless Steel Fasteners

  What are Stainless Steel Fasteners? Stainless Steel Fasteners is most likely the material of choice for fasteners worldwide, and for good reason! Stainless Steel Fasteners are distinct and long-lasting due to their many benefits. Although  stainless steel fasteners manufacturers  know that, even little modifications in the alloy's component parts can significantly alter the electrical and mechanical properties of the component. 4 benefits of Stainless Steel Fasteners: STAINLESS STEEL IS CORROSION-RESISTANT The main selling factor for stainless steel is arguably the fact that it resists corrosion. A thin layer of chromium oxide can be produced on the outer surface of stainless steel due to the material's slightly higher than 10% chromium content. STAINLESS STEEL FASTENERS ARE CAPABLE OF SELF-REPAIRING The fastener's thin chromium oxide film uses oxidation as a defence mechanism against oxidation. Pretty astute, no? The oxide coating not only prevents corrosion but also ena
