General Information
Strainsert fasteners utilize an exclusive internal gaging method (U.S. Patent #2,873,341) to indicate bolt tension due to preload and subsequent service loads with strain gage accuracy. They are the first fasteners to provide a means for accurate, independent inspection of an assembled bolt for preload, thereby enhancing the structural integrity and reliability of both the bolt and the assembly.


Feature
  • Measurement of preload induced in fasteners
  • Accurate tightening of fasteners within 1% of induced load
  • Uniform tightening of fasteners in a bolt pattern
