High-strength bolts are commonly used in critical applications such as bridges, rail systems, and high-pressure or ultra-high-pressure equipment. One of the main failure modes for these bolts is brittle fracture, which can be dangerous due to its sudden nature. In ultra-high-pressure environments, high-strength bolts play a crucial role in ensuring the integrity and sealing of containers.

Understanding high-strength bolts involves several key concepts. Bolts with a performance grade above 8.8 are generally classified as high-strength. The current national standards only cover up to M39, and for larger sizes—especially those longer than 10 to 15 times their diameter—domestic production still faces challenges in terms of quality and durability. This highlights the need for reliable suppliers and proper installation practices.
Bolt Classification by Yongnian 0310-6898512 Xiongjie Fastener Company: Bolts can be categorized based on their connection type, such as standard or reamed hole bolts. Reamed hole bolts must match the size of the holes and are often used when lateral forces are present. In terms of head shape, there are hexagonal, round, square, and countersunk heads. Countersunk bolts are ideal for applications where a smooth surface is required, as they sit flush with the material. Square-headed bolts provide higher tightening force but take up more space. Hexagonal heads are the most widely used due to their versatility. Some bolts feature holes in the head or along the shank, which help prevent loosening under vibration. Thin-waist bolts, with unthreaded sections, are designed for applications involving variable loads. Special high-strength bolts used in steel structures often have larger heads and different dimensions to meet structural requirements. Other specialized types include T-slot bolts, commonly used in machine tool fixtures, and anchor bolts for securing machinery to the ground. U-bolts and welding studs are also common, with the latter being welded on one end and threaded on the other for easy assembly.
The latest analysis of bolt basics reveals that bolts are mechanical components with cylindrical shapes and external threads, typically used with nuts to fasten two parts with through-holes. This type of connection is known as a bolted joint, which is easily removable when the nut is unscrewed. As a part of railroad accessories, bolts are essential in maintaining track stability, supporting rails, sleepers, and other track components. A well-maintained track system ensures safe and smooth train operations under heavy loads.
When it comes to bolt grades, steel structure connections use performance classes such as 3.6, 4.6, 4.8, 5.6, 6.8, 8.8, 9.8, 10.9, and 12.9. Bolts rated at 8.8 and above are made from low-carbon alloy or medium-carbon steel, heat-treated (quenched and tempered), and considered high-strength. The performance grade is denoted by two numbers, where the first represents the nominal tensile strength (in MPa) and the second indicates the yield ratio. For example, a 10.9 grade bolt has a tensile strength of 1000 MPa and a yield strength of 900 MPa. These grades ensure consistent performance across different materials and origins, making them essential for engineering design.
When installing bolts, especially in critical areas like engine connecting rods, several precautions should be taken. After every 12,000 km of operation, the engine oil sump should be inspected for bearing bush wear, and connecting rod bolts should be replaced if necessary. Any signs of uneven engine operation or unusual noise require immediate inspection. During maintenance, new connecting rod bolts must be checked for cracks, dents, or irregularities in the thread or head. Torque wrenches should be used to tighten bolts according to specified values, avoiding over-tightening or under-tightening. It’s also recommended to use bolts from certified manufacturers to ensure reliability and safety.
Product Description
[Application scope and technical characteristics]
In order to fulfill the requirement of downhole motor operation and drilling cutting mud slip as well as drill bit cooling, series mud pump crawlers are innovated and have been widely deployed in underground directional drilling system. Mud pump crawlers are hydraulic drive mud pump systems with full tracked chassis. The crawler can maintain enough flow rate under high pressure in work situation. They can supply abundant hydraulic fluid power for downhole motor operation and drill cut remove to meet the requirement of long distance directional borehole drilling.
