14、teners (formerly American National Standards Committee B18) wasorganized in March 1922 as Sectional Committee B18 under the aegis of the American EngineeringStandards Committee (later the American Standards Association, then the United States ofAmerica Standards Institute, and, as of October 6, 1969
15、, the American National Standards Institute,Inc.) with the Society of Automotive Engineers and ASME as joint sponsors.In 1995 the SAE Ship Systems and Equipment Committee that was preparing fastener partstandards for the shipbuilding industry asked the ASME B18 Committee if there was an interestin d
16、eveloping dimensional standards for studs. At the December 1995 B18 meeting in Atlanta,Georgia, it was reported that a survey by ASME showed considerable interest in establishing asubcommittee to develop stud standards, and 11 representatives indicated their willingness toserve on the subcommittee.
17、Subcommittee (SC) 31, titled “Studs,” was established, and drafts ofSAE U.S. Customary and SI (Metric) stud standards were distributed for review.In April 2008, B18 SC 31 had completed work on ASME B18.31.2, which covered the studsfrom the Industrial Fasteners Institute (IFI) publication, IFI-136, S
18、tuds and Bent Bolts. At thatmeeting in Salt Lake City, Utah, B18 SC 31 approved a motion to create a bent bolt standardincorporating the bent bolts covered by IFI-136. IFI-136 was developed through the proceduresof the IFI. The standard for studs and bent bolts was originally published in Fastener S
19、tandards,5th edition, 1970.In 1986, these standards were updated, modestly revised, and reissued as IFI-136. In 2002,another revision was completed, and the standard was issued as a third revision.At the December 2008 meeting in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida, the scope of the new bent boltstandard was
20、 discussed at length with a decision made as to the thread forms, diameters, andbent bolt configurations that would be covered by the new standard.At the April 2009 meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada, B18 SC 31 and the B18 Board approvedchanging the SC name from “Studs” to “Studs, Lifting Eyes, and Bent B
21、olts” to cover the additionalstandards being handled by the Subcommittee. During the Las Vegas meeting, extensive timewas spent discussing and developing the part identification number (PIN) system to be used inthe new standard. At that meeting, the working group was asked to consult with the chair
22、ofSC 24, Industry/Government Liaison, about putting the PIN system into an appendix of B18.31.5.The chair of SC 24 agreed with the plan to keep the PIN system for bent bolts inside of the newbent bolt standard.A draft of this Standard was sent out as part of the agenda for the November 2009, SC31mee
23、ting in Las Vegas, Nevada. During that meeting, it was decided to indicate that unlessotherwise specified by the purchaser, the bolt material would be carbon steel. It also was decidedthat a survey of the B18 Committee would be taken regarding the inclusion of the PIN systemas part of the bent bolt
24、document. The survey was completed, with the majority agreeing thatthe PIN system would remain in the appendix, as ASME B18.24 could not accommodate themultiple dimensions of the bent bolts. The PIN system only applies to bent bolts with dimensionsidentified in the Standard. All bent bolts covered i
25、n the Standard can be identified by a modifiedtraditional method based on the method previously identified in IFI-136.A draft was balloted before the April 2010 meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, and several disap-provals were resolved at the meeting. Additional members volunteered for the Working Gro
26、upto determine and review tolerances for the dimensional tables. The draft was sent out for reviewto the four domestic manufacturers and two international manufacturers who had providedprimary information for the dimensional tables and tolerances.Further comments were reviewed during the April 2011
27、meeting in New Orleans, Louisiana.During that meeting it was decided that some configurations of bent bolts would be mentionedwithout dimensional tables being included. Recommendations for additional dimensions can beforwarded to ASME B18 SC 31 for consideration. A final draft was approved in July 2

36、nt bolts. Dimensionalrequirements are provided in tables for U-bolts of dif-fering bends, eyebolts, hook bolts of differing bends,and J-bolts. General requirements are provided for offsetround bend, J-bolts, square bend hook bolts, vee bendU-bolts, and slant U-bolts.1.1.2 Two methods are identified
37、for designating(ordering) bent bolts covered by this Standard. For con-figurations covered by dimensional tables,Nonmandatory Appendix A provides a Part Identifica-tion Number (PIN) system that allows ordering the partsin several materials and finishes. For configurationswithout dimensional requirem
38、ents or of sizes not cov-ered in the tables, a standard system for identifying thedimensions, material, and finish is provided.1.1.3 The inclusion of dimensional data in thisStandard reflects generally available configurations. Itis notintended toimply thatall ofthe productsdescribedherein are stock
39、 production sizes, particularly in materi-als other than low carbon steel. Consumers should con-sult with manufacturers concerning lists of stockproduction sizes and materials.1.2 DimensionsAll dimensions in this Standard are in inches, unlessotherwise specified. When plating or coating is speci-fie
40、d, the finished product dimensions apply before plat-ing or coating unless otherwise specified by thepurchaser.1.3 OptionsOptions, where specified, shall be at the discretion ofthe manufacturer, unless otherwise agreed upon by themanufacturer and the purchaser.1.4 TerminologyThe following terms used
41、 in this Standard are identi-fied in this Standard below or in para. 2.1. The definitionof other terms used in this Standard may be found inASME B18.12.1.4.1 L-hook bolt is also known as a hook bolt,right angle bend as defined in ASME B18.12.11.4.2 J-hook bolt is also known as a hook bolt,round bend
