FAQs

What is the primary advantage of torque-controlled anchoring?

Torque-controlled anchoring ensures that the bolt is tightened to a specific, calibrated level. This prevents over-tightening, which can damage the concrete or the bolt, and under-tightening, which can lead to a weak connection. It provides a consistent and reliable fastening integrity.

Can I use this through bolt in damp conditions?

No, the TIMco Through Bolt is designed for clean, dry environments. Its zinc plating and passivation offer corrosion resistance suitable for these conditions, but it is not intended for prolonged exposure to moisture or high humidity.

What is the required hole size for this bolt?

The required fixture hole size for the TIMco Through Bolt M12 x 140mm is Ø14mm.

How do I install this bolt if I don't have a torque spanner?

If a torque spanner is unavailable, you can achieve adequate tightening by turning the bolt with 3 to 4 full finger turns after it becomes snug. This provides installation flexibility on site.

What material is the bolt made from?

The bolt is manufactured from cold-formed carbon steel.

What is the bag quantity for this product?

The bag quantity for this product is 10 units.

Does the bolt come with a washer?

Yes, the product includes a Form A, M12 x 24mm washer.

Troubleshooting

Bolt does not feel secure after tightening.

Ensure the hole diameter is correct (Ø14mm) and thoroughly cleaned. Verify that the bolt is fully seated and that the expansion clip is functioning correctly. Re-attempt tightening, ensuring consistent torque application.

Threads on the bolt appear damaged.

The chamfered head design should prevent this during normal installation. If damage is present, do not use the bolt. Inspect the installation tool for burrs and ensure the hole is properly aligned.

Visible signs of corrosion.

This bolt is intended for dry environments. If corrosion is observed, it indicates the bolt is exposed to moisture or humidity beyond its intended use. Consider replacing with a more corrosion-resistant anchor if the environment cannot be improved.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides precise torque-controlled anchoring for reliable hold.
  • Durable construction from cold-formed carbon steel.
  • Thread protection via chamfered head design.
  • Facilitates quick installation with its expansion clip.
  • Offers flexibility in installation methods.

Cons

  • Best suited for clean, dry environments only; corrosion resistance is limited.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Drill a hole in the concrete substrate with the specified diameter: Ø14mm.
  2. Clean the drilled hole thoroughly to remove any dust or debris.
  3. Insert the TIMco Through Bolt through the fixture and into the pre-drilled hole.
  4. Tighten the bolt using a torque wrench set to the recommended torque specification for an M12 bolt. If a torque spanner is unavailable, tighten the bolt by hand for 3 to 4 full finger turns until snug.

Compatibility:

  • Material: Primarily designed for use in concrete.
  • Environment: Suitable for clean, dry environments with low humidity.
  • Fixture Hole Size: Requires a Ø14mm fixture hole.
