ASTM If you are working with A325 structural bolts on a regular basis we strongly recommend purchasing a copy of the ASTM A325 specification from ASTM International ASME ASME B18 2 6 covers dimensional standards for A325 heavy hex structural bolts RCSC The Research Council on Structural Connections is a non profit volunteer organization whose research ASTM designations A325 F1852 and A 490 The new ASTM specification F1852 refers to the fasteners frequently referred to as tension control TC twist off or torque and snap fasteners High Strength bolts range in diameter from 189 to 1 189 in For bolts larger than 1 189 in the AISC allows the use of ASTM A449 provided that they are2008 07 30 nbsp 0183 32 A325 bolts are heavy hex head bolts ONLY and are designed for structural steel connections They range in diameter from 189 – 1 1 2 inclusive Due to their application an A325 structural bolt has a shorter thread length than a typical heavy hex bolt If you need a bolt with longer threads ASTM A449 should be used 2015 07 01 nbsp 0183 32 ASTM A325 is an ASTM International standard for heavy hex structural bolts titled Standard Specification for Structural Bolts Steel Heat Treated 120 105 ksi Minimum Tensile Strength It defines mechanical properties for bolts that range from 1⁄2 to 1 1⁄2 in diameter The equivalent metric standard is ASTM A325M which is titled Standard Specification for While ASTM A449 seems to offer the same strength as ASTM A325 the use of A449 material is restricted in the Specification Section J3 1 to bolt diameters larger than 1 189 in or lengths exceeding 12 diameters This is because these bolts are not produced to the same inspection and quality assurance requirements as ASTM A325 bolts If the bolts must be pre tensioned the
ASTM A449 covers headed bolts rods and anchor bolts in diameters ranging from 1 4″ through 3″ inclusive It is a medium strength bolt manufactured from a medium carbon or alloy steel that develops its mechanical values through a heat treating process It is intended for general engineering applications ASTM A449 is virtually identical in chemistry and strength to ASTM Bolts A325 9 4 A490 11 3 2 or 11 4 2 Twist off type tension control bolt assemblies F1852 13 4 Nuts A563 9 2 Washers F436 9 2 Compressible washer type direct tension indicators F959 10 2 2 Manufacturer The party or parties that produce the components of the fastener assembly Mean Slip Coefficient 181 the ratio of the frictional shear load at the faying surface to the total normal A449 covers quenched and tempered hex cap screws bolts and studs for general use A449 is identical in strength to A325 but a more appropriate specification for headed anchor bolts A449 is an appropriate anchor bolt specification when a project requires a bolt to be stronger than F1554 Grade 55 and not as strong as F1554 Grade 105 Portland Grade A325 bolts are available in diameters from 1 2 to 1 1 2 inch for diameters greater than 1 1 2 ASTM A449 specifications should be considered with a minimum tensile strength of 120 000 PSI They also come in two types Type 1 is a medium carbon steel and can be galvanized Type 3 is a weathering steel that offers atmospheric corrosion resistance similar to that of ASTM ASTM A325 bolts are available in diameters from 189 to 1 1 2 inch diameters for diameters greater than 1 1 2 ASTM A449 specifications should be considered with a minimum tensile strength of 120 000 PSI for diameters one inch and less and 105 000 PSI for sizes over one inch to 1 1 2 They also come in two types Type 1 is a medium carbon steel and can be galvanized Type 3 is
