RotaBolts are being used on advanced tactical military bridging systems. The latest version of the Dry Support Bridge (DSB) from WFEL uses over 1,000 RotaBolt tension control fasteners to help assure its structural integrity, RotaBolt reports.

 

The DSB achieves its lightweight construction through a series of aluminum modules pinned together using steel jaws, which depend on a guaranteed clamping force across the bolted joints.  

 

“We use RotaBolt tension control fasteners on each of these critical friction joints because we can rely on them to achieve and maintain the necessary clamping force and assure structural integrity,” commented Jim Field from bridgebuilder WFEL. “We have used their tension control fasteners on our bridges for many years and we know we can rely on them.”

 

Using a single launch vehicle, the new DSB can be deployed in under 90 minutes by eight soldiers. During assembly, the RotaCap atop each bolt can be “finger-checked” for proper load gauging as the DSB extends to its its 150-foot length. 

 

“When a standard bolt is tightened using traditional practice the clamping force or tension across the joint is completely unknown,” commented Rod Corbett from RotaBolt. “Our fasteners not only achieve the correct design tension but they continue to monitor and maintain it throughout the life of the joint.”
 

England-based RotaBolt designs and manufactures specialty fasteners for the transportation, power generation, construction and oil and gas industries. Web: rotabolt.co.uk ©2010 GlobalFastenerNews.com
