Manufactured to ASTM A490 and ASTM F2280 standards, this fastener features a 7\/8-9 UNC thread and a 3-inch length under head. The assembly includes a compatible nut and washer, allowing a single-sided installation using a tension control wrench. The splined shank shears off at the calibrated installation torque, confirming proper pretension without the need for additional inspection tools. Structural ironworkers and steel erectors rely on this bolt type for beam connections, column splices, and moment frame assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tension control bolt is used in structural steel construction where high-strength, pretensioned fastener assemblies are required. Typical applications include steel framing, bridge components, and industrial infrastructure where AISC or RCSC specifications govern connection design. The 7\/8-9 thread size and 3-inch under-head length suit a range of standard connection plate thicknesses. Each package contains 5 complete assemblies, each including one bolt, one nut, and one washer ready for installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eASTM A490 and ASTM F2280 certified high-strength structural bolt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/8-9 UNC thread for standard structural connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch length under head accommodates typical multi-plate connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes nut and washer — complete assembly per bolt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish — compatible with standard structural steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSplined tip shears at proper installation torque for built-in pretension verification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style structural fastener replacement for high-strength 7\/8-9 UNC tension control bolt applications conforming to ASTM A490 and ASTM F2280 specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of tension control bolts requires a calibrated TC wrench and must be performed by qualified ironworkers following RCSC Specification for Structural Joints guidelines.
