Every project has many of its own peculiarities. The F1554 was first introduced in the early nineteen nineties. It covers all anchor bolts that were intended for structural supports to all foundations made with concrete. They can either be headed bolts, bent anchor bolts or straight rods.
There are three different grades, the 36, 55 and the 105 and they are all designate the minimum ksi or kilopounds per square inch of the anchor bolt. These can be roll threaded or cut and the 55 grade can be changed for the 36 grade if needed. Each one comes with a specific colour code at the end so that identification in the field is much easier. The 36 bolt is blue while the 55 is yellow and the 105 is red.
The Hex bolt is the most commonly used when needed for construction. They have a six sided head and are used for fastening steel and wood as well as for highway structures and docks. The normal products that are produced for any highway include guardrail bolts, barrier pins, traffic pole anchors, light anchor bolts as well as bridge rail anchor bolts and sign structure bolts.
For all marine projects these bolts need to be hot dipped in galvanised or stainless steel. This helps to prevent corrosion and ensures that their strength is intact. Stainless steel in also known as inox steel and has some chromium content added. It does not generally stain with water but this can happen in low oxygen, poor air circulation and high salinity areas.
There are even bolts that are dipped in galvanised steel. This means that the steel or iron has gone through a chemical procedure that will help prevent it from rusting. The steel will be coated in a few layers of zinc as rust cannot damage this kind of defensive metal. The general purpose of this is that excess zinc will be left in the threads thus helping to prevent the nut from threading onto the fastener.
Portland Bolt is the leading anchor bolt and construction fastener manufacturers in North America and was founded in 1912 by J Llewellyn. By 1916 there were fifteen employees and they were producing an annual sales of over $100 000. When they first started out their main products were bolts, washers, dies, rivets as well as pole pins and different tools for machine shops.
They started off in a 6 thousand square foot stable and in the mid 1920s moved to a much larger facility where they were able to add a hot-dip galvanizing line. In 1974 they sold the business to a Morris Galen and Melvin Peters who were going to fulfil the obligations and then liquidate all the assets. During this time they found out that the business had a lot of potential and decided to sell off the galvanizing line.
In 1988 it was sold again and in 1992 they moved to a much bigger facility where they had 85 thousand square feet. They then bought back the hot dip galvanizing line. Other products that they manufacturer besides these are the u-bolts and tie rod assemblies. You will need to make sure that you have the right equipment for any project you are taking on, so why not use tools and bolts provided by true experts.
