If you purchased a few, you might know who makes them.......

It seems that "L9" is a 180 ksi fastener, it's a brand, actually.

Bowman also has bomalloy which is a "grade 9" fastener, but beware not all grade 9 bolts are the same, there isn't a standard for the strength - it varies between manufacturer.

Okay, the trick in locating high strength fasteners is knowing the trademarked name?

Are you replacing a bolt or designing a connection? L9, Bowmalloy, etc have different head marking if you replacing a bolt. L9 and bowmalloy are similar, we have used both where I work. I don't like high strength bolts as the are more susceptible to hydrogen imbrittlement and stress corrosion cracking than a grade 8.

Do you have an Acklands-Granger in your area? they have them. Peter

If you have a Caterpillar dealer local they will likely have them in stock. Cat refers to the bolts above grade 8 as "high strength", but I have been told they are grade 9 equivalent.

Edit: I see Bob got his post up while I was typing.

yeah, if you are really concerned about that, one should be going B7M or something NACE compliant.

Why not just use a bigger bolt?
