Revolutionizing Solar Installations with Squirter® DTIs from Applied Bolting Technology™
Bellows Falls, VT: Applied Bolting Technology™ is proud to announce the expansion of its innovative Squirter® DTIs (direct tension indicators) into the solar industry. Tens of millions of these groundbreaking devices have been utilized globally in structural steel projects. Now the solar sector is beginning to discover the unmatched benefits of our revolutionary DTIs.
The Benefits of DTIs
Standard DTIs are hardened, washer-shaped devices incorporating small arch-like protrusions on the bearing surface. These protrusions are designed to deform in a controlled manner when subject to a compressive load. Unlike other tightening methods, when a DTI is sufficiently compressed, it tells you the bolt has been tightened correctly, regardless of bolt characteristics like length or condition.
The Squirter® DTI Difference
Squirter® DTIs have all the benefits of standard DTIs. On top of that, the key feature that sets them apart is the expulsion of durable orange indication media. This deploys when a bolt has been properly pretensioned, making installation easy and accurate.
