Testing and inspection
Every lot is tested before dispatch to the applicable standard and the order's inspection plan, in our in-house laboratory accredited by NABL to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 for the tests in its scope. Lots have been inspected on customer orders by agencies including TÜV SÜD, TÜV NORD, Lloyd's Register, DNV, SGS, BVQI, RITES and EIL.
In an independent test by Element Materials Technology, Singapore (report T24-56832R, November 2024), one TUFF M22 class 10.9 HSFG bolt reached 1,221 MPa tensile strength against the ISO 898-1 minimum of 1,040 MPa. This is one sample; results vary by size, grade and lot, and the test certificate of each supplied lot governs. Read the test summary.
