Hebei Longze is a world-class manufacturer specializing in high-precision Tension Control (TC) Bolts, engineered to provide the most reliable fastening solutions for high-strength structural steel connections. Our Twist-Off Bolts are meticulously crafted in strict accordance with ASTM F1852, ASTM F2280, and EN 14399-10 standards, ensuring that every critical joint achieves the precise pre-load required for structural integrity without the need for tedious manual torque calibration.
Featuring an innovative spline end designed for use with specialized electric shear wrenches, these bolts offer a fail-safe installation process. Once the exact tension is reached, the spline automatically twists off, providing immediate visual verification of a correct installation. This advanced preloaded fastening system drastically reduces labor costs through single-operator installation while eliminating the engineering risks associated with over-tightening or under-tightening in heavy-duty construction.

Frequently Asked Questions
ASTM F1852 is generally equivalent to A325 high-strength bolts, whereas ASTM F2280 is equivalent to A490, offering higher tensile strength for more demanding structural applications.
The bolt is designed with a spline end that shears off only when the specific tension is achieved, providing a mechanical guarantee of the correct pre-load.
For highly corrosive coastal environments, Hot Dip Galvanized (HDG) or Dacromet finishes are highly recommended due to their superior salt-spray resistance.
No, TC Bolts require a specialized electric shear wrench to grip the spline and ensure the "twist-off" occurs at the precise tension point.
We offer a comprehensive range from M16 to M36 in Metric sizes and 5/8" to 1-1/8" in Imperial sizes to suit various engineering specifications.
Yes, while primarily for heavy structures, their high strength and corrosion resistance make them excellent for large-scale photovoltaic ground-mount structural supports.
