This bolt features a 7\/8-9 UNC thread form and measures 4-1\/4 inches under the head, with a 1-5\/8 inch head diameter. Manufactured from A325 steel in a bright, uncoated finish, it meets ASTM A325 and ASTM F1852 fastener standards. Each package includes a matching nut and washer, making it a complete assembly-ready fastener set. Structural ironworkers and steel erectors rely on tension control bolts for consistent, torque-verified clamping force in bolted structural connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTension control bolts are used in structural steel erection for commercial and industrial construction, including beam-to-column connections, moment frames, and base plate assemblies. The TC bolt design uses a splined end that shears off at a predetermined torque, providing a reliable visual indicator that proper pretension has been achieved without requiring manual torque verification. This fastener is suited for use where AISC or RCSC bolt specifications are required by the project engineer of record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/8-9 UNC thread size for standard structural bolt hole patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-1\/4 inches length under head accommodates typical multi-ply connection stack-ups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eA325 material grade meets ASTM A325 and ASTM F1852 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish for bare steel connections or field-painted assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes nut and washer for complete installation as a single kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSplined TC design provides visual confirmation of proper pretension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style structural fastener for use in bolted steel connections requiring 7\/8-9 UNC tension control bolt assemblies per ASTM A325 or ASTM F1852 specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of tension control bolts is typically performed by certified structural ironworkers using a TC bolt installation tool that engages the splined shear end. Always verify that the connected plies are fully drawn up snug before final tightening. Follow RCSC Specification for Structural Joints Using High-Strength Bolts for pretensioning procedures and inspection requirements. De-energize or isolate any adjacent electrical or mechanical systems before working in close proximity to energized structural environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8-9 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: A325\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A325; ASTM F1852\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nut, Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound (per package)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCB30870425USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701600223538,"sku":"TCB30870425USA","price":66.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7d8cb3dbc77ff32f3277989dd7702746.jpg?v=1788402255","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-tcb30870425usa-tension-control-bolt-a325","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
