TC Bolts Fastening System
TC bolts consist of a three-piece fastening system with 1) a round head bolt with a truncated, flat surface area at the top of the bolt, and a 24-sided tip which protrudes from the opposite end. The tip is calibrated to shear off when the proper tension is applied. 2) a heavy hex nut and, 3) a structural flat washer.
