- F3125 F1852 (Group 120) and F2280 (Group 150)
- EN 14399-10 HRC, JSS II 09 S10T
- Installed from one side, by one worker
- Spline shears off at the design tension
- Visual inspection of every bolt
- Quiet electric shear wrench
How it works
A TC bolt has a domed head and a splined end. The shear wrench holds the spline and turns the nut; when the bolt tension reaches the calibrated value the spline twists off at its groove. A missing spline is a visible, permanent record that the bolt was tensioned.
TC bolts save time on large bolted structures – multi-storey frames, bridges and long-span roofs – and remove impact-wrench noise from the site.

Installation notes
- Pre-installation verification of each lot in a tension calibrator
- Keep bolts in their sealed containers – lubrication controls the tension
- Snug all bolts first, then twist off in a pattern from the stiffest part of the joint
- Do not re-use bolts that have been tensioned
