Guaranteed tension

Hall: 21 Stand: J67
Tension Control Bolts Ltd says that its products are replacing conventional high strength friction grip and pre- loaded bolts throughout the steel construction industry simply because they are quick and easy to install.
ension Control Bolts Ltd explains that its Tension Control Bolts (TCBs) guarantee tension and, together with visual inspection, removes the likelihood of operator error and help assure engineers that connections are tightened in accordance with European specifications.
TCBs are used extensively by the UK rail industry for
new bridges, re-strengthening of existing bridges and rivet replacement. The UK highways agency also specifies TCBs for its bridges and gantries. Tension Control Bolts Ltd has its own metal coating
plant producing an environmentally friendly process called Greenkote®
which is comparable to galvanising, although it is
harder wearing and readily accepts all paint systems without the need for acid etching. As the largest manufacturer, designer and distributor of TCBs
in Europe, Tension Control Bolt Ltd is able to offer ex-stock delivery of both its range of bolts and shear wrench tools, as well as providing full technical support and installation training.
