KB TZ2 Kwik Bolt

KB TZ2 Kwik Bolt

We used KB TZ2's to anchor a fire pump controller to floor. The Controller manufacturer installation manual states to use a Grade 5 bolt. Are the KB TZ's equal to or stronger than a Grade 5 bolt?

Hi Kevin,

It is recommended to compare the specific Grade 5 bolt you are referencing to the KB-TZ2 to determine which option may be best for your application. For steel strength information related to the KB-TZ2, please refer to page 302 of the Anchor Fastening Technical Guide or ESR-4266.

Regards,
Matthew

Grade 5 bolt just says it is medium carbon steel that has been quenched and tempered. I don't know what medium strength means.
