Material Testing of Fasteners as per IS 1367 Standards

Fasteners such as bolts, nuts, and washers may seem small, but their role in maintaining structural integrity is enormous. At TCR Engineering, we conduct rigorous material testing of fasteners in compliance with IS:1367 (Part-3):2002 and IS:1367 (Part-6):1994, ensuring every component meets the required performance and safety standards.

Why IS:1367 Matters

The IS:1367 series lays down the mechanical and chemical properties for fasteners used in high-stress environments. Adhering to these standards is crucial for:

• Ensuring product reliability

• Preventing mechanical failure

• Meeting regulatory compliance

• Maintaining industry reputation

By testing as per these Indian Standards, manufacturers and suppliers demonstrate a commitment to quality, which is vital across sectors like automotive, construction, aerospace, and infrastructure.

Tests Conducted by TCR Engineering

We offer a full suite of tests to validate both chemical composition and mechanical performance:

Chemical Testing

• Bolt Sample

• Nut Sample

• Washer Sample

These tests verify the material grade and elemental composition, ensuring the right alloy is used for strength and corrosion resistance.

Mechanical & Heat Treatment Tests

• Wedge Load Test – Evaluates bolt performance under inclined loading

• Proof Load Test – Confirms a nut's ability to handle load without permanent deformation

• Hardness Test – Measures resistance to indentation, correlating to material strength

• Hardening Temperature – Validates proper heat treatment process

• Tempering Temperature – Assesses post-hardening stability and toughness

At TCR Engineering, our commitment to excellence ensures that every fastener is tested with precision, in full compliance with IS 1367 standards. This guarantees optimal safety, reliability, and long-term performance of components used in critical assemblies.

Let your projects rest on a foundation of certified quality.
