Hot-dip galvanized BoxBolts and structural bolts are commonly used for distribution boxes, offering corrosion resistance, multiple sizes, and compliance with international standards.

BoxBolt Models and Features

BoxBolts are blind structural bolts designed for hollow sections and restricted-access connections. They are suitable for rectangular, square, and circular hollow sections, especially in aggressive environments requiring more than a standard zinc coating . Key features include:

  • Hexagon head for standard wrench installation
  • Hot-dip galvanized finish for enhanced corrosion resistance
  • Multiple lengths to accommodate varying clamping ranges
  • Clamping range: Combined thickness of connected steel, with overlapping lengths for flexibility Common models include standard BoxBolt diameters with three overlapping lengths, and special lengths are available for thicker materials . Technical datasheets provide detailed load ratings, hole dimensions, and installation instructions .

Hot-Dip Galvanized Structural Bolts

For structural steel and distribution boxes, hot-dip galvanized bolts are preferred to match the corrosion protection of the steel structure . Relevant standards include:

  • AS/NZS 1559:1997 – Hot-dip galvanized steel bolts with nuts and washers for tower construction
  • AS/NZS 1252:1996 – High-strength steel bolts for structural engineering
  • AS 4100:1998 – Steel structures and joint performance requirements
  • ISO Metric hexagon bolts and plain washers for general purposes These bolts are designed to maintain structural integrity while providing long-term durability in outdoor or industrial environments.

Double Arming and Other Specialized Bolts

Some distribution box applications may require double arming bolts, which come with multiple nuts and are hot-dip galvanized for corrosion protection . These bolts are supplied with certified technical documentation, including material specifications, drawings, and installation instructions, ensuring compliance with site-specific requirements.

Installation and Considerations

  • Ensure bolts are galvanized to the same standard as the steel structure to prevent premature corrosion
  • For friction grip connections, consider the slip factor and surface preparation as per AS 4100
  • Verify clamping range and bolt length against the combined thickness of the distribution box and mounting structure
  • Follow manufacturer datasheets for torque specifications and installation procedures to maintain structural performance

Summary

For distribution boxes, hot-dip galvanized BoxBolts and structural bolts provide reliable, corrosion-resistant fastening. Selection should consider bolt diameter, length, clamping range, and compliance with standards such as AS/NZS 1559, AS/NZS 1252, and ISO metric specifications. Technical datasheets and manufacturer catalogs are essential for precise selection and installation guidance .
