Bronze U Bolts, Bronze U Bolt Clamps, U Bolt Hardware
Bronze U Bolts | Bronze U Bolt Hardware
We are one of the leading manufacturers and exporters of Bronze U Bolts and Bronze U Bolt Hardware from India. We have been supplying precision-engineered Bronze fasteners to the world market for many decades. Known for their excellent corrosion resistance, conductivity, and mechanical strength, our Bronze U Bolts are widely used in electrical, marine, and industrial environments where standard steel fasteners would fail. With over 30 years of global export experience, we serve OEMs, contractors, and distribution networks with custom sizes, short lead times, and personalized support. Our facility integrates modern wire forming, thread rolling, and forging technologies to deliver consistent quality in every shipment.
Overview
Bronze U Bolts are essential fastening components used to secure pipes, cables, and rods to surfaces or structural frames. Made by cold bending Bronze round wire and threading by rolling, these U bolts are paired with Bronze cold-forged nuts and Bronze pressed washers made from the same Bronze alloy or compatible metals. Their unique combination of strength and resistance to corrosion (including galvanic and saltwater environments) makes them ideal for harsh conditions. We are specialist in Bronze casting and can offer Bronze Hotline clamps, Bronze vise Connectors , Bronze Transformer spade terminals.
Material Grades and Specifications
We use high-quality Bronze alloys conforming to international standards:
Grade | Composition | Standard Equivalent | Application Use |
---|---|---|---|
Phosphor Bronze | Cu 88-90%, Sn 9-11%, P <0.5% | ASTM B139, IS 292 | Electrical and mechanical fastening |
Aluminium Bronze | Cu 88-91%, Al 8-10% | ASTM B150, BS 2872 CA 104 | Marine, pumps, offshore structures |
Silicon Bronze | Cu 94-96%, Si 2-4% | ASTM B103, UNS C65500 | High-strength electrical and plumbing fasteners |
Manufacturing Process
- Wire Forming: High-quality Bronze wire is straightened and cut to length.
- Bending: Precision dies are used to cold-form the U shape to exact dimensions.
- Thread Rolling: Threads are rolled (not cut) for higher strength and surface finish.
- Nuts: Manufactured by cold forging and threading.
- Washers: Produced by blanking and pressing operations.
