THE STRENGTH OF FISH-BOLTS

A report on performance of hardened and non-hardened fish bolts, also bending-free bolts are included. Tests included the use of Vibrogir to determine the effect of vibration in the loosening of a rail-fish plate and bolt unit. Under the equivalent of a passage of 85 million tons, no looseness because of nut turning was found.
